A night before: I was preparing on all the current and health issues. Intro as well. Although introducing ourself is easy, I was worried that I would stammer during the interview. :D Then, I went to my bed earlier than usual. At 12am.
On the day: I got up at 8am and got ready for the interview. After taking breakfast at a restaurant, we moved to USIM. Yes, the interview was held at USIM, Nilai. It was near and the place was familiar to my dad. I saw a Malay guy when we were parking our car. I smiled at him and asked him how the interview was. He said it was easy. I felt relieved a bit. After entering the entrance, there were so many parents and students. It was 10.20am. Checked my name on the list and I was the second in my panel ( panel 1). After getting kiss from my parents, I went upstairs. Parents were asked to wait downstairs.
It was a big library. Few girls were sitting there and I joined them. They were really good and friendly. I knew one of them. She came to the same tuition with me. They were also nervous like me. But after talking to them, I lost my nervousness. Then there was a lady came to our table and asked for our files. It was 11.05am. After giving our files to her and taking our tags, we went into our interview room.
We were five girls in our group. Two malay girls, two chinese girls and I was the only Indian. Our interviewers were 1 Malay woman, 1 Chinese man and 1 Malay man. After wishing them Selamat Pagi, we were asked to sit.
First we were asked to intro ourself. After I finished introducing myself, I was asked, "Why do you choose medicine?" I answered it's my and my parents dreams. I love helping people. It's a noble profession. And I said so many things la.
Then, the malay woman asked us, "Apakah langkah-langkah mengawal darah tinggi?" I raised my hand to answer but before me a malay girl did. After her turn, I answered about bersenam and melakukan pemeriksaan kesihatan. I crapped a bit. Haha.
After that, we were asked, "What does make you more qualified than other students for this scholarship?" I answered, my results say it out all first if all. And I also talked about how I worked hard for this and financial problem.
Then, they asked us, " What's my weakness and how u overcome it?" I said, my weakness is I'm very a dependent person and always depend on my parents. Then, I changed myself and bla bla bla la..
Then, they asked us, "What's my mistake I've done in my life?". I answered, I'm a very last minute worker, how it affects my trial exam and how I correct it.
Hmm then, they asked us again, "What would you do if you're not given this scholarship?" I really expected this question. Well, I answered that, I'll do form 6 or Matriks and try to get four flat and conitue my studies in local Uni. 4 of ur answered the same and only 1 girl said she'll do foundation in private college.
Again, they asked us, "Would you accept if you're offered to study in local?" I said, yes I would and I gave few reasons la.
I thought those were all but we had group discussion. I was like errr WTH!! It's not fair. My friends in other panels didn't have group discussion and why we had. Fortunately, we were asked a very easy question. It was "Sebagai doktor, berikan langkah-langkah mengawal sikap merokok dalam kalangan remaja." They asked us to discuss and give them an effective langkah. After discussing for few minutes, we found out that the most effective langkah is mengadakan ceramah. We had points to elaborate on it. So we chose it.
Then, they said the interview was ended. We said Terima Kasih, shook hand with the woman and went out of the room as fast as possible. We screamed you know. Hahaha. Seriously, it was so relieved and the first word came out from my mouth was 'a heavy burden is lifted off'. It was also my Facebook status.
And yeah that's all. I guess I did well in my interview. Hope everything goes well. Good luck to me. :D ♥
