How Bond selects applicants to the medical program:

Based on the changes in Bond's selection process made in 2018, if you are applying to join the faculty for medicine at Bond University, you will be asked to complete two selection phases after submitting your academic scores and competing the application form:

Psychometric test

In this phase you will receive an invitation from Bond's medical school to complete two psychometric tests – a clinical personality psychometric test and an emotional intelligence psychometric test. These tests are to be completed online but proctored (supervised) to ensure that everyone gets a fair go. You are givn only 2 hours to complete both tests.

MMI interviews 

Once you have successfully passed the psychometric test, Bond will invite you to attend the next selection phase, which includes between 5 and 6 interview stations held on campus. There are two types of stations. The first is an individual station (one applicant assessed) takes 8 minutes (2 minutes preparation time outside the station and 6 minutes to perform in the station). The second type of station is a group station which takes 10 minutes to complete. Each station measures a separate component of the applicant's suitability.

Bond psychometric tests and interview in details:

1. Bond's clinical personality psychometric test

This Bond psychometric test is a clinical personality test that includes over 200 forced-choice test questions. Bond's personality test is designed to assist Bond to identify your suitability for the role of a medical practitioner and medical student. It includes personality traits such as coping with stress, confidence, depression, ability to manage anger, planning skills, ability to work with others, how assertive you are and more.

Please review the following example of a personality test question:

People often turn out not be as nice as they seem.

To what extent do you agree with this statement?

• Strongly disagree
• Disagree
• Neutral
• Agree
• Strongly Agree

This test question is a covert type of personality test question that measures your trust in others. Trust is a very important factor in Bond's decision regarding whether you are likely to be a good medical student and medical practitioner or not.

Please note: the risk with taking the personality test is that you can easily get a personality profile that says that you have a red flag. Once you have one red flag then you are automatically disqualified from proceeding. Therefore, it is very important to ensure that you answer the personality test in the proper way to not get any red flags. 

2. Bond's emotional intelligence psychometric test

Bond's second psychometric test is an emotional Intelligence test that includes over 100 forced-choice test questions. Bond's emotional intelligence test measures your overall emotional reasoning based on eight different emotional intelligence abilities:

1. Identifying emotions in facial expressions.
2. Understanding how emotions facilitate behaviours.
3. Understanding how and why emotions change.
4. Managing positive and negative emotions.
5. Identifying how visuals can impact emotions.
6. Identifying associations for emotions.
7. Ability to understand and manage multiple emotions.
8. Ability to use emotions to manage relationships.

Bond's psychometric tests - emotional intelligence test - has a wide range of test questions styles which makes this psychometric test a fairly challenging one to answer.

Please review the following example of one style of test questions for Bond's emotional intelligence test:

How much is each feeling below expressed in this picture?

Happy 1-5

Sad 1-5

Fear 1-5

Anger 1-5

Disgust 1-5

Here you need to analyse the content and colours of the image presented to identify the correct emotions and the intensity of each emotion on a scale of 1 to 5.

Now, let's review a very different style of test questions in the same emotional intelligence test:

How much is each feeling in the list below expressed by this face?

Happiness (1-5)

Sadness (1-5)

Fear (1-5)

Anger (1-5)

Disgust (1-5)

Here you need to analyse the facial expression to identify the correct emotion and the intensity of the emotion on a scale of 1 to 5.

These are only 2 examples out of a wide range of test questions styles in the emotional intelligence test.

3. Bond's interviews (MMI and role-play):

What to expect in Bond's medical interviews?

Once you passed your Bond psychometric tests, you will receive an invite from Bond to participate in an on campus interview day. The interview day includes 4-6 separate interview stations. In each individual station you are given 6 minutes to complete the station and 2 minutes to read information before starting the station. In the group station, you are given 10 minutes to complete a group task. These stations can include the following:

• A station focusing on you. You can be asked to write why you want to learn at Bond. This a very critical station as this is the first time that Bond gets to meet you and hear why you want to enrol into the program.
• A station with a role play in which you are asked to respond to an actor playing a role. How you respond and what type of emotions you demonstrate will determine how well you will succeed in this station.
• A station in which you are given a short scenario to read and then asked three questions about the scenario.
• A station in which you will participate in a group activity and you will be assessed based on the role you take in the group.

The special interviews for Bond University medical school will only be offered to those who passed the Psychometric Test. Over the past years, the Institute of Psychometric Coaching has assisted many successful applicants to become better prepared for their Bond interviews. We offer a range of intensive and highly effective interview preparation programs for which you can enrol now. Contact us to see how we can help you to successfully pass your Bond medical interviews.

During the interview applicants will be assessed on the following:

• Emotional maturity
• Critical and logical thinking
• Leadership skills
• Initiative
• Teamwork
• Communication skills
• Accountability
• Ethical decision-making skills
• Motivation

Interviews are held in person on campus at Bond University on the Gold Coast, where their general suitability to medicine and preparedness to undertake a highly demanding course will be examined in 4-5 mini interviews

Once the interviews are complete, successful applicants are made an offer into the Bond Medical Program. This offer must be accepted within a specified timeframe. Bond University may make subsequent offers until all available places are filled.

How we prepare you for Bond's psychometric tests and interviews

As Bond psychometric test and Bond interviews are very different parts of the selection, we separate between the preparations for each part.

Our preparation for Bond psychometric test & interview:

The Institute’s expert psychometricians have prepared an effective preparation solution for these tests as part of our 1-on-1 tutoring sessions. We have successfully run these tutoring sessions for many candidates in the past years and achieved a very high rate of success. The tutoring sessions include:

Option 1: Expert psychometricians tutoring you 1-on-1 for Bond's psychometric tests (personalised approach):

• 1-on-1 tutoring sessions delivered by expert Psychometric test trainers who are very experienced with Bond's psychometric tests.
• Our trainers are experienced working with school leavers and uni students to prepare them for Bond's psychometric tests.
• Sessions are delivered face to face (in our Sydney and Melbourne offices) or via Skype live.
• Your psychometric test tutor will provide you with everything you need to know about the Emotional Intelligence test and the Personality test including example test questions based on the real tests.
• You will be given special practical material and information about Bond's personality test and emotional intelligence tests.
• You will also be asked to complete special practice personality test questions and practice emotional intelligence test questions which are similar to Bond's tests to allow your tutor to assess your ability to implement the knowldge you gained and identify areas of strength and weakness. Then your tutor will work with you to improve on your weaknesses. These are only available for those taking the full tutoring package.

How long to get you ready?

As our preparation for Bond psychometric test is tailored to you, it is more difficult to predict how long it will take. However, from our extensive experience, we would highly recommend that you book at least 3 sessions of 2 hours (3 X 2 hours). A session longer than 2 hours will be less effective. From our experience, most applicants take between 8 to 10 hours to get ready for both of Bond's psychometric tests. You can always start with 1 session and then purchase more.

Option 2: Basic preparation - group course/workshop online (this option is only available closer to the test date):

When there is a high demand, the institute of psychometric coaching will open online group courses of 7 to 8 hours each for those who wish to prepare for Bond’s psychometric tests.  Each group course will have up to 6 participants and will encompass an overview of all sections of Bond's psychometric tests - Emotional Intelligence Test and Personality Test. These courses will be delivered by our senior psychometricians, however, they will be shorter in content and will cover a limited number of example questions in comparison to the personalised training. The group course includes the following:

1. A short description of each of the 8 sections within the Emotional Intelligence Test
2. Fundamental principles and basic learning tools for each section
3. A limited number of question examples.
4. A short overview of the Personality Test
5. Danger areas to avoid in the Personality Test
6. A limited number of example Personality Test questions

The entire course takes 7-8 hours and is delivered via Skype live.

Each course covers each area in a basic explanatory manner.  Some example test questions are provided within the course, and – due to the nature of the course – are limited.

The number of students per course is deliberately capped at a low number to allow suitable learning conditions.

A comprehensive preparation for Bond’s Emotional Intelligence and Personality Test will be best found in our 1-on-1 personalised preparation sessions.  The basic course is a great option for those who are short on time or find limited booking availabilities.

To book your basic preparation 7 hour group course, please select Group Course as your venue when booking your 1-on-1 tutoring sessions. This option will not bevcome available until closer to Fabruary.
