PHPL Advising is conducting virtual mock interviews via Zoom this year. Call our office to schedule a mock interview (407-823-0101) OR email phpladvising@ucf.edu, after you have been offered an interview at a health professional school so we can help you practice your interview skills with a mock interview.
About Mock Interviews for UCF Pre-Health Students/Alumni
Offered an interview at a health professional school? Contact our office to schedule a mock interview so you can practice before your real interview! To schedule a mock interview, call our office at 407-823-0101.
PHPL Advising conducts personalized, open-file, one-hour long, video-recorded mock interviews for UCF students and alumni who have been offered an interview at a health professional school. We have conducted over 170 mock interviews each year for the past seven years. We offer two types of mock interviews, so be sure to let us know the style of your actual interview so we can schedule you for the appropriate type of mock interview. We offer:
- Traditional-style mock interviews – 1 mock interview with 2 mock interviewers
- MMI-style mock interviews – 1 mock interview with 3 stations/3 mock interviewers
During your mock interview, we provide extensive feedback to you, and because we video record it, we will send you a link to access and view the video of both your mock interview and our feedback.
