Congratulation to all proud parents; yr pride is getting shortlisted for interview/tests.
Let me share what I remembered in 2018.
In 1 of the interview, the prof questions on the personal statement (500 words).
DD was asked to elaborate what’s your thoughts about specific points and some ‘big’ words in PS.
So, do remember the contents.
Not sure if it is FSA or SJT.
Was given a script; suppose to guide a patient to use ONLY chopsticks to pick-up marble from a bowl and put it into another bowl.
The simple setting in the play was an ‘actor’ with 2 bowls and chopsticks, spoon & folk. And there were some ‘markers’ standing/sitting around.
After getting the scripted intention across to the patient (like not too difficult task); the next few minutes were about the patient not being able to complete the task. Trembling hands, dropping marble, even displayed frustration…
Anyone in the shoe will continuously be encouraging the patient…as ‘markers’ are watching and grading the ‘future-doc-to-be’, have to show compassion and empathy on patient’s difficulties. The issue is; suppose to complete the task within given time frame. Nearing the time limit, dd says to the patient. If chopsticks are too difficult to handle, let’s try using spoon and we can practice with chopsticks again on another day. So, completed that station easily, with a spoon…time was up and moved on to other station.
After the test, 1st thing dd said to me was; ‘Dad, I think I did something not quite right’
The script says use ONLY chopsticks, and story goes as above.
I didn’t said any thing, just told her; don’t worry as no one knows what are the ‘Markers’ looking for ?
Now that I revisit that test’s setting; Was it even meant to be completed as per script, on the actor’s part ?
I liked to think; No ! the actor was going to continue failing to pick-up the marble. Not matter how nicely worded encouragement, patience,…Markers want to see how applicants react to this simple scripted role-play, but, actor was not going to co-star as he/she has another script to play. So, I truly hoped this could create some awareness on how to expect on those tests.
After shortlisted for interview/tests. RP 87.5 and 90 are on same ground.
Selection committees consolidate ranking and top ones are offer based on numbers of places they have.
There are some with double offers from both YLL & LKC; means some places will be vacant and waitlisted ones move up. -
