Not just how but why: a closer look at the purpose and value of the medical school admissions interview

The project explores the perceived value of- and selection criteria captured by- the inclusion of a live interview component in medical admissions interviews. This project addresses a gap in the literature, as most medical education literature on admissions interviews focuses on either the structure (e.g. MMI vs panel) or the impact of interview score on student outcomes (e.g. GPA, professionalism).
