It has been exactly a year after I was told that I cannot apply for the interview. Now that I have gone through that, I am grateful alhamdulillah.
I have been talking to my counselor a few times before to make my interview session as early as possible. I always believe that if you want something, you have to work for it, no matter what others will say, especially if it involves other people. He told me before that my interview might be on July, but alhamdulillah on last minute he called me that I can attend for the latest session and I made a total payment of RM500.
The subjects required are Biology, Chemistry, Maths/Physics. At least a B. Alhamdulillah so far my result was a CGPA 4.00 so I was able to attend the interview before the final result is announced.
Preparation for Interview
The deadliest "Tell me about yourself" is of course, impress them as much as possible.
The famous questions :
1. Why do you want to be a doctor
2. What do you wan to specialized in
3. How do you see yourself in 10 years
Please prepare for these basic questions! Not to mention I've studied about the school as well, the mission, the ranking, name of the dean and stuff.

For Q.2, it will be really specific. I told the interviewer that I'm going to pursue my study in Dermatologist, so she asked me these additional questions :
1. Name skin diseases
2. How the diseases occur
3. How inflammation occurs
4. How to differentiate type of skin
5. Layer of skin
On top of that, she also asked me these :
1. Which specific government hospital do you want to work at, why
2. Which private hospital do you want to work at, why
I guess these are some of the questions for them to see how we react during stress situation.. It can be anything actually. Who knows these are the questions that pop into her mind at that moment? Nahh jk.. Hihi
The rest, just be yourself and honest.
Towards the end, the interviewer told us that,
1. Name skin diseases
2. How the diseases occur
3. How inflammation occurs

5. Layer of skin

The rest, just be yourself and honest.
Towards the end, the interviewer told us that,
"What you answer is not important, what we want to value is how do you cope with the questions,"Anyway, my interview was conducted with 2 candidates + 1 interviewer. I heard that it depends on your luck.. Kind of. Sometimes it's 5 at a time, sometimes it's 2 interviewer.. Doesn't really matter though. Just say what you want to say. That's all.
