Mastering The Multiple Mini Interview
A 1 Week Step-By-Step Course To Ace Your MMI
A Word From Dr. Rachel Rizal:
Hi Medical School Applicants!
My name is Dr. Rachel Rizal, and I'll be your instructor for the "Mastering The Multiple Mini Interview” course.
Are you worried about doing well on your medical school Multiple Mini Interview (MMI)? Don’t worry, I was too.
I was part of Stanford Medical School’s first batch of applicants who went through the MMI interview process. “How do I stand out? What’s the best way to answer MMI questions? What if there are actors in the room and I have to role play? What if I blank out when I meet an interviewer? Can I prepare for my MMI?”
These questions – and more – were swimming in my head... similar questions that you may be having right now as your MMI interview is fast approaching.
Luckily, I got accepted to Stanford School of Medicine!
Fast forward a few years, and I became an interviewer for Stanford Multiple Mini Interviews. I learned how to differentiate between GOOD versus GREAT versus STELLAR applicants. I have been in your shoes and the interviewer’s shoes.
Which is why, I created this Multiple Mini Interview course! I want to help YOU succeed and shine during YOUR interview day. I will help you get STELLAR MMI scores!
For the past few years, I coached and prepared pre-meds to ace their MMIs. And they have been very successful!

"I used this course to prepare for my first med school interview this 2020 application cycle. This course really prepared me for what to expect. Specifically, this course helped me learn how to organize my responses and bring in my experiences as a premed. The mock interview with Dr. Rizal was very, very, very helpful. This was a great investment of time and money."
- Connie, current medical school student 2020-2021 cycle
"Rishi and Rachel are great! They went above and beyond by promptly offering key insights and strategies as my questions arose during the application process."
- Jennifer, current medical school student at University of California, Davis
"Thank you so much Rachel - I just finished my interview and your tips helped a lot! One interviewer's style was different from those of other interviewers I had before (he had rapid-fired questions and seemed to gauge how I adapted), but I think I responded well. I was able to incorporate "why" I wanted to go to that medical school throughout my interview."
- Kareem, current medical school student at Oregon Health and Science University
"The Cracking Med School Admissions team prepared me to think on my feet. I felt extremely comfortable and ready to answer each of my MMI questions during the interview cycle. I highly suggest every student who has an upcoming med school interview to work with them!"
- Sam, graduated from Stanford School of Medicine
