==Overview==
 
The multiple mini interview (MMI)is an [[interview]] format that uses many short independent assessments, typically in a timed circuit, to obtain an aggregate score of each candidate’s [[soft skills]]. In 2001, the [[Michael DeGroote]] School of Medicine at [[McMaster University]] began developing the MMI system, to address two widely recognized problems. First, it has been shown that traditional interview formats or simulations of educational situations do not accurately predict performance in [[medical school]]. Secondly, when a licensing or regulatory body reviews the performance of a physician subsequent to patient complaints, the most frequent issues of concern are those of the non-cognitive skills, such as [[interpersonal skills]], professionalism and ethical/moral judgment.
