Practice with a real interviewer before the real one. My wife, Julie Cunningham, MA, CCC-SLP, is a licensed speech-language pathologist who runs mock interviews on Zoom for medical, nursing, PA, dental, pharmacy, vet, therapy, graduate, business, and law school applicants. She coaches every format: one-on-one, panel, MMI, and recorded video interviews such as Kira Talent. She works on how your answers come across: clear key words, pace, voice, filler words, organizing an answer so it has a point, staying steady when you’re nervous, and how you look and sound on camera. It’s $250 an hour.

Frequently asked questions

Are these the real questions programs ask?

Where a program publishes its interview questions, the guide quotes them and links the program’s page. Everywhere else, the practice questions are ours, and each guide labels them that way.

Where does the information come from?

Only official sources: programs’ own admissions pages, application services, and professional associations, linked where they appear. Each guide shows the date we last checked it.

Can I practice with a real interviewer?

Yes. Julie Cunningham, MA, CCC-SLP, runs mock interviews on Zoom in every format, including MMI, panel, and recorded video. It’s $250 an hour.

My program isn’t listed. What should I use?

Start with the grad school interview guide or the allied health guide, then read your program’s own admissions page for its format.
