    Haha the zero to hero part being cringe made me LOL!!! Love how you made your video in the comfort of your own home and so natural 🙂I watched some MMI videos on RUclips and I notice that many of the so called interviewees use a lot of medical language. 😮‍💨They seem to be armed with lots knowledge pertaining to Medical scenarios already. 😳I know they are definitely scripted besides prior medical knowledge since they are videos made by medical students, but in the real MMIs example in Monash Uni, do they actually require interviewees to be armed with so much of this knowledge. I am now worried.

    • @DarrenTan21
      @DarrenTan21 5 дней назад

      Glad you like the background! I can’t really comment without seeing the exact videos you’re referring to. Generally interviews don’t require that much medical knowledge - more how to manage ethical issues (plagiarism, bullying) and an awareness of broader social problems as well (rural, Aboriginal health)

  • @Dandelion_flight
    @Dandelion_flight 18 дней назад

    Hi Darren, how long were you in this placement? Is this considered regional? Do you need to do rural placement as well for your course? Any idea if the students under the bonded program study the first two years in Clayton like the 'unbonded' program? Thank you. :)

    • @DarrenTan21
      @DarrenTan21 14 дней назад

      Hi Dandelion! Most students have a week of rural placement in second year (the other students have class or time-off I think). That’s when this video was recorded. I’m fairly sure that bonded students have the exact same five years of uni as all the other students - the ‘bonded’ part comes into play once they’ve graduated

      If you can’t find specific things to work on, try sending in just a plan, or just an intro, or a bp to your teacher. That way you can work on specific parts of the essay and your teacher can help you with your ideas or analysis or vocab etc.

    Hi Darren. Thanks for sharing this information, great video as always. As I'm preparing for my upcoming interview at Monash, I wanted to clarify regarding a part of the video. You mentioned that there is no leeway with timing. Does this mean that as soon as your 8 minutes are up for one station, you will be shifted to the next breakout room right away and your 2 minutes reading time will start instantly? Is there no time in between for them to maybe paste the prompt in the chat, or really just to say "good morning"s? Just clarifying as I feel this is a bit strange, one minute you are responding to one prompt and the next you're suddenly in the next breakout room. Also, would you advice I greet the interviewers or will they typically engage first? How did it go for you, if you can recall? Thanks for everything, honestly your videos both here and on Medify are so informative and helpful. Wish you all the best with your journey as a future doctor :D

    • @DarrenTan21
      @DarrenTan21 2 месяца назад

      Hey Sanhita! No worries, thanks for supporting the videos here and on Medify. Yep you are shifted immediately - I think they have a timer on so everything is automated. I remember greeting the examiners, it’s just natural to say hi - but how in detail you go after that is up to you. A spoken interview is a bit different to a maths exam, so I think the half a minute it takes to chat/share the prompt isn’t a huge issue.

    Hi Darren, im in year 9 and thinking about doing Latin in vce. I speak 2 languages similar to it, so its easy for me to pick out certain words in passages, however im starting from scratch. How do you recommend me to study latin? Are students required to write essays in vce latin? Also, my school would have me do vsl latin (cause theres no teachers), so what would you recommend me to do? Thanks

    • @DarrenTan21
      @DarrenTan21 2 месяца назад

      Hey Ethan, I’d recommend you use the Oxford Latin books and learn the vocabulary and grammar which they cover there (first book is red, second books is yellow etc.). Importantly, learn how to conjugate nouns/verbs/adjectives + some vocab. Does VSL Latin start in Year 12? I’d recommend you have classes or tests earlier as they help with learning the language. It sounds like VSL is your only option unless you’re changing schools or going with another subject instead.
