Multiple Mini Interviews vs Traditional Interviews: Investigating Racial and Socioeconomic Differences in Interview Processes by Banks PW, Hagedorn II JC, Soybel A, Coleman DM, Rivera G, Bhardwaj N

“…MMIs decreased demographic differences compared with traditional interviews for African-American candidates and slightly increased for URM, Hispanic, and disadvantaged candidates, but the effect size was small.Conclusion: Future work includes conducting rigorous data analysis to better assess the MMI’s utility, exploring the correlations between MMI scores, clinical evaluations, and objective structured clinical examination (OSCE) results. This multifaceted approach will provide a comprehensive view of how MMI performance aligns with real-world clinical assessments and standardized evaluation metrics, offering valuable insights into its effectiveness as a predictor of future medical proficiency.Keywords: medical student selection, race-neutral admissions, multiple-min-interview, holistic admissions…”
