KIRA Interview Preparation with Dr. T
Two focused one-on-one sessions designed for international dental applicants — learn the KIRA format, build a personal answer framework, and rehearse under timed video-interview conditions.
What KIRA actually tests
KIRA is an asynchronous video interview platform used by dental schools and residency programs. You record answers to pre-recorded questions under strict timers — no live interviewer, no retakes.
Think time
To read the question and organise your answer before recording begins.
Response time
On-camera window to deliver a structured, on-point answer.
Format
Webcam recording only — no writing, no live interviewer, no chat.
Attempts
One recording per question. No retakes. Preparation is the entire game.
What you’ll work on with Dr. T
Session 1 · Foundations
KIRA format walk-through, answer frameworks for personal, behavioural, ethical, and school-specific questions, structuring responses under time pressure.
Session 2 · Mock + feedback
Full timed mock under KIRA conditions. Line-by-line feedback on content, pacing, tone, body language, and confidence.
Between sessions
Access to our KIRA practice timer so you can rehearse with realistic prompts on your own time.

Common questions
Who is this for?
International dental graduates and applicants preparing for KIRA-based interviews — including NYU, University of Toronto, UBC, and other Advanced Standing and DDS programs.
How are sessions delivered?
Live one-on-one over Zoom with Dr. T. Both sessions are recorded so you can review your performance afterwards.
What if I need more practice between sessions?
You’ll get access to our KIRA practice timer with realistic prompts, plus a written framework playbook to rehearse against.
When should I book?
Ideally three to six weeks before your KIRA window opens, so we have time to build structure and run a full timed mock.
