A special thank you goes to the doctors from our school community and to Mrs. Uzma Zaffar for their invaluable support, time, and expertise in mentoring our aspiring medical professionals.
The mock interviews offered pupils an authentic experience of what to expect in real university interviews, enabling them to develop and demonstrate essential attributes within the Doha College Learner Profile, including: seeking challenges, embracing new experiences, and growing from mistakes. Pupils rotated through a series of realistic MMI stations that reflected real-world scenarios, such as Medical Ethics, Hot Topics, NHS Structure, Communication Skills, and Work Experience Reflection.
This valuable experience allowed pupils to showcase professionalism and self-awareness while receiving constructive feedback from experts in the field. It was an inspiring demonstration of academic curiosity, integrity, and adaptability - qualities that define the Doha College learner and prepare our pupils to make meaningful contributions to the global medical community.
