med uni interview pak

[humble snow]

any tips on how to remain calm, and confident during these interviews

[dense oriole]

Ppl say taking deep breaths and drinking water helps which never worked for me, I just stretch my muscles like I'm about to run a marathon and go, that helps me, lol

[humble snow]

right right, i could buy myself some time by taking a sip of water too, anything else that youd like to add w ur experience

and how you controlled your nerves?

[dense oriole]

I mean, I never had to, I was always super calm, so I can't rlly relate to most ppl, but try to practice interview with your family or frns, that'd help can u down in the real situation

[humble snow]

im not really a fan of these mock interviews tbh, its not like its my first interview, its just my first BIG interview, but would you recommend it, cus i have some seniors who r down to take my mock interview online

but idk im hesitant

[dense oriole]

If its online, then it's the best lmao, I remember that I had my ipad on one side, laptop on other, and my sister was away from camera view, ready to ask chatgpt any question the interviewer asked, kek,

Anyways, that was irrelevant, the best medicine for calming is having a good night's sleep having a full belly, nothing good comes out of having an empty stomach, and fear of making a mistake is what leads to mistakes, so if u make a mistake, pre think on how to cover that up, or brush it off with sth better, having that solution really boosts confidence

Which uni r u applying to?

[humble snow]

ooh thanksss ur right ur right, the mock interview would be online but the actual interview is physical😭

I'm currently in Australia cause it makes things easier, both my sis have uni here, so somehow I got transferred there too

[humble snow]

oh wow thats brilliant, how is it there, i heard you guys have crazy animals and insects there, are the stereotypes true

[dense oriole]

Bro it's damn spiders everywhere, even on 13th floor it's so damn weird, I mean, you can see them everywhere!!

[humble snow]

hate spiders

i hate flying cockroaches more

its all fun n games and i crush the cockroaches TILL i hear them wings go bzz bzz and fly off

[dense oriole]

Frrrr

[dense oriole]

And I even found one on the plane on Cathay pacific

[humble snow]

😭😭

it was a warning

[dense oriole]

Kek

But one thing to hate is how cold it gets

[humble snow]

aw man id much rather suffer in the cold rather than the heat

[dense oriole]

It's colder than Canada, cause in Canada it snows and stuff, but it's not that cold, you won't feel it hit on ur skin in here, it's dry and cold, you'll feel ur skin break

And I see my neighbor wearing shorts on such cold days, some ppl are built different

[humble snow]

oh wow

i still believe its better than sweating like an animal and smelling like shit

[dense oriole]

Me too, I've always lived in cold places, so I rlly can't tolerate the heat,

[dense oriole]

Fr

[humble snow]

frr have had a few experiences like those too, one time a guy was in a vest while i was shivering to the bone

[dense oriole]

And the uv rays are crazy, stay in the sun without sun screen and ur done for

[humble snow]

frrr

[dense oriole]

Damn, I wonder what they eat, lol

[humble snow]

then again 0 sun like london or places like those, have its harmful effects too

[dense oriole]

I learnt it the hard way

[humble snow]

no vit D so they take supplements

[humble snow]

oh how so

[dense oriole]

Ye, that's true

[dense oriole]

I didn't wear any sunscreen when I first came here, and it was summer then, the sun was high, I went to the beach, and came back burnt so bad, never had this happen in asia

[humble snow]

ooh yeah i heard austrailias UVs are terrible cus the ozone above yall is depleted

so the uv comes directly onto you without deflection

caused skin cancer alot back then too

in Australia

[dense oriole]

Yeah, that's true

The only thong to be glad abt is that halal meat costs only 2wice or thrice more than normal, unlike the UK where it like 5 times more expensive

Thing*

Typo(

[humble snow]

[dense oriole]

Kinda yeah

[humble snow]

[dense oriole]

But there are thieves here too....I had my bike stolen, it was brand new too

That happened a week after I cane

[humble snow]

oh man, well its worse here in karachi(city in pak)

[dense oriole]

Damn, ig nowhere is safe in today's world

I even went to the police station, and they wouldn't give a damn abt it, all they'd do is ask for my passport, I'd and done, wth, they even closed the case after 6 weeks cause they didn't find it,

Anyways, it's super late now imma go to sleep byeee

[vale quartz]

The best thing I did was sya bismillah, take a few deep breaths and then just do it

I didn't apply to pak but I had a bunch of inteveiw for other med school

Also search up common med interview questions to make sure you're prepared

I used to talk to myself out loud with answers I would say, that helped me a lot!

[humble snow]

thanks man, ill practice this too ❤️
