    Hey guys I have a question for you on behalf of my friend who wants to apply for Curtin med this year

    Do you remember what quartile you got for CASPER to get the interview?

    He qualifies for Step-Up as well in case you need that information too

      Thanks for the info if you don't mind could you also share what you did to prepare for the Curtin interview.

      Im not sure if my strategies and advice will help my friend cos I went to the UWA interview and not for Curtin

        no worries, i basically just bought the medify and medentry packages to prepare. i only prepared about 10 days before the interview (shocker: not enough time) and i also booked medentry's customised curtin mock interview i think 3 days before the actual thing. i tried completing the online course, but i didn't have enough time; i watched model answers and wrote down something i would have said.
        i watched a lot of videos on acing mmi interviews, namely laura beaumont, kharma medic, and emil eddy ucat. they helped me gain a wide understanding of how different areas/countries conduct this type of interview. the mock interview from medentry also helped quite a bit as it allowed me to practice answering mock questions, it showed other people answering the questions, and the interviewers gave actual feedback (numerical and overall performance/tips). they mark a bit harsh/use complex situations which prepares you better for the actual thing.
        i also signed up on medstudentsonline to familiarise myself with experiences of past interviewees and learned the dress code suitable for curtin (business attire).
        something else i also did for medify training was watch the sample video answers, realise their faults and strengths, and recorded myself responding to these questions. sometimes i took too long so i tried redoing the videos to make sure i spoke at a good pace, appeared confident, and ultimately tried making my answer a lot more concise.
        in the end this is what worked for me, and the experience is different for everyone šŸ™‚
