Well I think around these few days you'll always hear about people talking about JPA scholarship Interview and all
I went for my interview at ( 6/4/2010 ) for medical course. It was definately a very important day for me as it is my first interview! and of cause my heart was pumping rapidly the few days before and almost pop out at dat particular day, because gosh its just so stressful! one wrong sentence/ word and TATA !
so Im gonna jot down every single thing i remember as a guide for others who will be going for the interview too
Before the interview, most of you guys will start searching about whats the current issues, reading newspaper ( really important) because most of them asked about general stuffs and all , and what i think that is VERY important is
get to know the course you are taking like what are you suppose to do, what personalities and values you need to have that can show them that you are eligible for the scholarship and all
my interview is @ putrajaya. I woke up at 5 am to get ready
* remember to get everything certified the week before by your school principle, dont have the habit of being last minute, because you might panic and WILL affect your calmness
*Prepare everything and arrange the certs and all according to the list
* DONT forget to bring anything they listed .
guys remember to wear FORMAL
Long Sleeve shirt with tie and everything.
girls
Formal too of cause. I wore Baju Kurung that my aunty lend me :)
OKaAY so i left house around 6.15 am and reached there at 7.15! Daddy accompanied me the whollleee day. can feel the support all the way from outside when i entered the " Parents dilarang -zone"
Reached there, checked my name at the board, signed, and sit down to wait for their instructions. Saw a few friends over there :D seriously having friends over there really calm you down. Try talking to them, dont stay nervous ALL THE WAY.
Around 8am we were asked to go to our panel. Mine was Panel 7. Once i reached there ,I went to register . Sit down. and interact with others from your panel :D expecially those who are going in the room with you! you dont want to treat each other as rivals or wad and glare at each other and sending out the " killing aura" thingy. No. Getting to know them allows you to be more relaxed.
well i waited awhile because mine was the 4th group to go in :) so I asked the previous ppl what happened and all.To get myself ready .Many ppl say there are repeated questions so yea if you're lucky !
Around 11 something, its my turn to enter the interview room. I got my fav number 5 :)!
this is what i got from a website
if you are the first one who enter,knock the door, peep in and ask for permission to enter.
WALK IN CONFIDENTLY. But not over confident that makes them think you are arrogant or what.
stand by the chairs, if they ask you to sit, sit. if not, ask permission. Just mind your manners =) My interviewer is a man and a women whom is also a doctor. Your interviewers are very experienced so try not to give any false/ self invented facts, it wont work. If you dunno just reply in a polite way " Im sorry but I dunno the answer for that question" when one is asking a question, the other will look at you. What i think is he'll try to see wheter you're confident about your facts.
What my interviewer said is what they are finding for is someone who can elaborate on their points well. What i did was i presented my idea, and looked into their eyes and stood my stand. ( tips from a senior :) ) Talk confidently and clearly, dont spill out everything ASAP because no one can understand what you are talking.
the first part is
SELF INTRO ( in BM) or english .i seriously think you guys should prepare for this
the questions ::
1. Malaysia have not enough doctors. The Government need to import doctors from other countries . They send them to rural areas but malaysian doctors are kept in the city. do you think this is fair?
All of us answer No. because we are malaysian and we understand our people more than the foreign doctors.
But the interviewer told us she was hoping we will answer Yes it is fair because Help is bettter than No Help. Basically because we have not enough manpower, and we need to look at the government's point of view.
2. What is your vission and mission?
3.I give you one minute , tell me the value that you have that can convince me that you are eligible for this scholarship
4. Tell me what you know about the role of a doctor
i finnaly got the answer from interviewer
she told us
firstly as a doctor your role is numer one-Prevention, Second is Cure and Third, is rehabilation :) most of us answer regarding the Cure part only, seriously she enlighted me about this! i was finding everywhere about this and now. I know
5. Relate Urban Poor with Health
Hmm i gues thats all ? Okay Ill compile what my other friends say into here :) hope this helps

a) Explain about your field of choice.
b) Discuss from your perspectives, the ethics that an engineer should have to ...ensure that the society continues to respect the engineering profession.
3. Group discussion
- Discuss what you understand by the term 'green technology' and why it has attracted much concern and interest.
There are rumours that the scholarship recipients have already been pre-selected, that this interview has little or no significance whatsoever. It is up to you to believe it or not.
As for tips, the whole point of this interview is to project yourself as an outstanding individual. If you don't make an impact on the interviewers, they'll forget about you and that's it. Each person has
his or her own speaking style, so work on your strengths and minimize your weaknesses. Personally, i went for charm and persuasion. (without my hair, this was MUCH less effective though) Another member of my
group went for self appraisal where he drew the attention to hisaccomplishments such as hiking gunung tahan, managing rm12k worth of funds etc. Don't be shy, speak up and articulate yourself as best as
you can. Godspeed and good luck.

JPA iNTERVIEW :
Now, I'll just cut to the real deal.
1) Introduction
2) Group discussion : a) Government subsidies, required or not?
b) Bond VS Scholarship
3) PLKN (National Service)
4) Which country do you wish to go to further your studies ?
5) Why be a doctor? What qualities do you have to take the heat of this career?
6...) Explain 1 Malaysia!!!!
7) What did you learn during the Hospital Attachment Program?
Zhui Mun 1) Intro yourself in BM ( name, from where, activities u participated, family background, career choice)
2) Point of view: a) Compare government or private hosp better, any improvement you ...want to make
b) After you got JPA scholarship, and you have to work in Malaysia, what if you are to work in rural areas, would you agree?
3) you can ask them any ques...
Basically that is all....
* the interviewer are quite nice , and the best know your facts, try not to crap something untrue... my interviewers are like lecturer of pathology in a faculty of science in 1 local uni, another some high ranking ppl in medic line.. all in all do your best, be yourself!:D Good luck!!!;)
