My Bio
Patrick
Second year medical student
Hi!
I’m a third-year medical student at the University of Alberta currently working through my clinical rotations. I have a BSc in general sciences from UBC and several years of experience in cardiac research and manuscript editing. While I am fascinated by all-things science and medicine, my true passion lies in helping others tackle all the various hurdles that lie between them and the future career they are working towards. I greatly admire the time and energy others have invested in me and I aspire to pay it forward, which has resulted in my espousal of various mentorship roles in athletics, research and the medical school admission process.
I am a firm believer that success is most easily achieved once we recognize and leverage our own unique skillsets. In accordance with that, the goal of my sessions will be to identify and emphasize your distinct attributes to highlight you as a unique candidate amidst the applicant pool. In addition to this, I'll provide you with some simplified, yet concrete, approaches to each type of MMI station you'll encounter on your interview day. That being said, I’m a very easy-going, hassle-free person and hope to run our sessions as more of a productive, well-structured conversation than a formal lecture.
My specialties lie in written applications and MMI interviews, specifically for the University of Alberta and University of Calgary. However, I can also provide guidance for other aspects of the application process, such as CASPer and panel interviews.
I hope to see you soon! Best of luck in your studies and applications!
