The MMI, or multiple mini-interview, consists of a series of short interview stations that are independent of one another. Together, the three to twelve stations assess your capabilities in the following areas: teamwork, communication, self-awareness, maturity, empathy, and critical thinking.
Crucially, you should think of the MMI interview as a way of assessing your thought processes and situational aptitude rather than content knowledge. In other words, you will not be asked to diagnose a patient based on symptoms or solve a medical mystery.
Different medical schools offer different numbers of stations and the questions they ask vary. You might find as few as four or as many as 12 stations. In general, you can count on most of the following to be consistent across schools.
