    Motivation for Veterinary Medicine

    9 Lessons

    10 Hours

    We answer the most frequently asked interview questions about “Why Veterinary Medicine?” in this section. – Vet schools want to know why you’re applying to veterinary school and what drives you. Do you want to share a personal story? Are you simply enthralled by animals? There is no right or wrong answer, but it is all about demonstrating your interest in the subject.

    Tutorials

    Lesson 1
    Why Veterinary Medicine?

    We’ll look at some of the reasons you’re applying to veterinary school and how to respond in this first tutorial. We’ll also go over some sample responses and come up with one that’s perfect for your interview booklet.

    Why Veterinary Medicine?
    Lesson 2
    Being a Vet

    Being a veterinarian can be challenging, and vet schools want to ensure that you have a thorough understanding of the field. Here, we’ll look at some of the advantages and disadvantages of becoming a veterinarian, as well as how you can show that you know what you’re talking about.

    Being a Vet
    Lesson 3
    Veterinary Specialties

    If you don’t know where you want to specialise in the future, that’s fine! However, it is critical to be aware of the various veterinary specialities and to discuss the speciality in which you completed your work experience.

    Veterinary Specialties
    Lesson 4
    Non-Clinical Roles of Vets

    Being a veterinarian entails far more than just caring for animals. Non-clinical roles such as teaching, practise management, and others are discussed here.

    Non-Clinical Roles of Vets
    Lesson 5
    Multidisciplinary Team

    MDT is a popular buzzword, but what exactly does it mean? What are the various roles of a veterinary system? What kind of interactions will you have with other veterinary professionals, such as veterinary nurses?

    Multidisciplinary Team
    Lesson 6

    Personality & Skills

    11 Lessons
    44
    10 Hours

    One of the main reasons Vet medical schools conduct interviews is to determine what type of Vet doctor you will be, which is often difficult to predict based on aptitude tests and A-Levels. Here, we’ll show you how to demonstrate your compassion, empathy, and organisational skills, which will help you become a great veterinarian.

    Tutorials

    Lesson 1
    Skills and Qualities

    Using Medic Mind’s 5 steps, you will be able to answer multiple personalities questionnaires with the same answers! It will also allow you to project confidence and coherence while demonstrating your diverse set of skills.

    Skills and Qualities
    Lesson 2
    Inspiration and Emotion

    We talk about the standard “Who is your role model?” question, as well as the value of sympathy and understanding as a veterinarian. To distinguish between different candidates, interviewers frequently choose applicants with a high level of emotional intelligence, which we will look at here.

    Inspiration and Emotion
    Lesson 3
    Teamwork & Leading Skills

    Working as part of a team is essential for a veterinarian, and we consider situations in which you have worked as part of a team. We’ll discuss why this is important in veterinary medicine and how it relates to what you’ve learned in previous veterinary medicine motivation courses. Along with teamwork, you must demonstrate clear leadership and consider examples of how you could have improved your team leadership approach.

    Teamwork & Leading Skills
    Lesson 4
    Organisation & Time Management

    Veterinary school can be stressful, and institutions want to make sure you can handle it. They want to know how you organise yourself and manage your time. They want to see that you have a life outside of veterinary care, and we will test you on potential stress issues and some of the challenges that vet professionals, particularly beginning veterinary surgeons, face.

    Organisation & Time Management
    Lesson 5
    Personality Scenarios

    After you’ve digested all of the information thus far, we’ll go over a few scenarios that will put your knowledge to the test. This requires a mix of MMI and direct questioning. You will be given feedback on your work thus far and will meet with your teacher to discuss areas where you need to improve.

    Personality Scenarios
    Lesson 6
    Academia and Motivation

    You will almost certainly be asked about general reading outside of veterinary medicine, as well as why you chose the A-Levels you did. You may be questioned about what you have learned so far in sixth form and how you intend to apply what you have learned to vet school.

    Academia and Motivation
    Lesson 7
    Thinking Outside the Box

    This is our most frequently requested lesson! We help you deal with some of life’s most unexpected events and questions. These are actual university stations, ranging from being asked who you would invite to a dinner party to where you would travel in the world!

    Work Experience

    10 Hours

    You will almost certainly be assigned to an MMI station that focuses on work experience, and you must be able to draw on your experience and go beyond what you have already written on your personal statement. This is why we pay special attention to what you’ve written in your personal statement and make sure we’ve covered all of the possible questions you’ll be asked.

    Tutorials

    Lesson 1
    Using STARR

    We will look at how to use the STARR framework when answering questions about work experience in this section. It is critical to be able to properly organise your questions, and using this format allows us to develop responses that will impress the interviewers. Before going through the 10+ questions in the interview handbook, we’ll take a closer look at both good and bad answers.

    Using STARR
    Lesson 2
    Work Experience Walkthrough

    This section will explain how work experience MMI or panel interviews work. We will evaluate your work history and simulate the type of scenario you would face in a veterinary interview.

    Work Experience Walkthrough
    Lesson 3
    Work Experience in Small Animal Practice

    Have you ever worked in a clinic-based small animal practice? Then we’ll practise the kinds of questions that veterinary schools prefer to ask about those who work in small animal clinics here.

    Work Experience in Small Animal Practice
    Lesson 4
    Work Experience in Large Animal Practice

    Work experience with large animals, such as in a stable, farm, kennel, or rescue centre, is typical. Veterinary schools love this and want to know about your experience in difficult situations.

    Prioritisation

    7 Lessons

    10 Hours

    As a veterinarian, you will almost certainly be extremely busy the majority of the time, with multiple tasks to complete at once. As a result, being able to prioritise various duties in terms of which are the most urgent/need to be completed first is critical, and this is frequently assessed in MMI interviews.

    Tutorials

    Lesson 1
    Prioritising: Introduction

    The process of determining which of several tasks is the most important and must be completed first is known as prioritisation. The first lesson will go over this.

    Lesson 2
    Detailed Walkthrough of Prioritisation

    As a vet, you will most likely have several responsibilities on your daily to-do list, and all of them are important in some way. We will show you how to prioritise tasks.

    Lesson 3
    Prioritisation in a Group Setting

    Several MMI stations are tested in one group interview at some colleges. You may be wondering how you can incorporate prioritisation into a group interview if you have to communicate with people you don’t know and don’t know how important their priorities are.

    Veterinary Ethics

    7 Lessons
    44
    10 Hours

    The most difficult aspect of the interview is covered in this section: Veterinary Ethics. A significant portion of the degree is devoted to veterinary ethics, and much of this subject is dependent on your personal opinions, as there is frequently no ‘right’ answer.

    Tutorials

    Lesson 1
    Veterinary Ethics: Introduction

    This session will teach you about the various types of ethical challenges that veterinarians face, as well as how to respond to any ethical questions you may be asked during your interview. Do not be concerned if you encounter an ethical quandary in an interview that you have never encountered before and are unsure about.

    Lesson 2
    Justifying your Ethical Reasoning

    When asked about an ethical issue during an interview, the main concern is not whether you gave the ‘correct’ answer or whether the examiner agrees with what they believe to be true. The ability to rationalise and support a position while presenting a balanced argument is being assessed here.

    Lesson 3
    Veterinary Ethics Walkthrough

    We’ll go over an example of an ethical MMI station and how you might approach it using what we’ve learned so far to help put some of the issues we’ve discussed above into context.

    Anatomy

    10 Hours

    You may encounter an anatomy station during your MMI interview, and it is natural to be nervous about having to name structures you are unfamiliar with (after all, this is what you came to vet school to learn). The following classes will teach you how to answer an anatomy question without having to rely on a textbook.

    Tutorials

    Lesson 1
    Using problem solving to solve anatomy questions

    When revising for interviews, we will provide you with a list of questions to help you solve anatomy stations.

    Lesson 2
    Top tips for anatomy stations

    The professionals in veterinary medicine interviewed will teach you how to approach anatomy stations – keep in mind that they are not necessarily assessing your anatomical knowledge, but rather your ability to deal with situations where you may not know the correct answer.

    Lesson 3
    Anatomy MMI Station Walkthrough

    We’ll talk about how to show the examiner that you have a logical, systematic way of thinking that will help you figure out what the structure is.
