In contrast to the similar interview selection processes\nwhere participants are interviewed by one or several interviewers at once, in\nMMI, participants are required to conduct several short interviews with several\ninterviewers at different times. In addition, participants are also interviewed\nat different locations by moving places or rooms.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The MMI method was first developed by McMaster University\nMedical School in 2001. This campus located in Ontario, Canada uses MMI to\nselect prospective students. It is believed that this method can more\naccurately predict the in-class performance of students and to assess the\ninterpersonal abilities of participants.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The MMI method has been adopted globally by a number of\nleading campuses throughout the world, especially for selecting prospective\nstudents in the health sector.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cThere were requests from several faculty deans that they\nwanted to get more prospective students that are more suited to the study programs\nthat they were interested in,\u201d said the Unpad Vice Rector for Academic and\nStudent Affairs, Dr. Arry Bainus, M.A.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Based on discussions with several deans, Dr. Arry believes\nthat one of the selection methods for getting the best candidates is by using MMI.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cBecause the Independent Pathway selection process is under the\nauthority of respective university, hence the MMI method was chosen by Unpad,\u201d\nexplained Dr. Arry.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
To prepare faculty managers to implement MMI well, Unpad\nheld a training session titled \u201cIntroduction to the Implementation of Multiple\nMini Interviews\u201d at the Unpad Training Center (UTC), Jalan Ir. H. Djuanda No.\n4, Bandung, on Monday (1\/7) and Tuesday (2\/7).<\/p>\n\n\n\n
In this training, Unpad invited Dr. Mohammad Nurman Yemen,\nand Dr. Mohammad Arif Kamarudin, from Universiti Kebangsaan Malaysia (UKM). UKM\nitself has implemented MMI in the selection process of its prospective students\nin the last three years.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cMMI is more objective and fair compared to panel\ninterviews,\u201d said Dr. Nurman Yeman.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Furthermore, Nurman emphasized the fact that the outcome for\nprospective students would be determined by many people, rather than based on\none or two interviewers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cParticipants who lack in one aspect of the interview can\nincrease their points in other aspects in the interview,\u201d Arif Kamarudin said\nabout the superiority of MMI which allows candidates to test their abilities\nfrom various aspects.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
When interviewed during the event, Nurman and Arif\nhighlighted the most important challenge from MMI, namely resources.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cMMI takes a lot of time, requires a lot of energy, money,\npeople and infrastructure,\u201d Nurman explained.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Nevertheless, MMI is believed to be a good method for\nselecting the best of the best prospective students. There have been many\nstudies that show that students who pass the MMI process have more superior\ncharacteristics compared to students who pass the traditional interview\nprocess.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cWhat is more important is to familiarize the interviewers\nwith MMI guidelines so that the MMI can be done correctly,\u201d Nurman concluded,\nregarding the importance of preparing interview guides for MMI training in the\nselection process for new Unpad students. *<\/p>\n\n\n\n
