ICO interview Exam Questions and Answers



Tell me about yourself - Ans:✔✔-Throughout my life, I moved quite often because my Dad's

employment. By the time I was fifteen years old I had moved 7 different times and attended 8 different

schools. Growing up I wasn't a big fan of leaving and starting again in a new place,I tended to be pretty

reserved and shy so moving around was relatively tough on me but I when I reflect back, I see how it was

and will continue to be an integral part of who I am. I learned how to be adaptable and adjust to

different situations quickly. I was consistently being pushed out of my comfort zone which allowed me to

grow in a way I wouldn't have if I didn't have this experience. It also pushed me into a place where now

I'm always being aware of people who are left out or who are new, which helped me to gain a great

sense of empathy for others.


Exposure

appearance and how small changes could define persons' face


During high school I started developing my interest in biology. I liked how I saw similarities between art

and biology in that how they are a way to describe the world and it compelled me to dive deeper into

the field of science.


So then when I got to University, in my second year my passion for biology really started to when I

beganworking in Dr. Vett Lloyd's Tick and Lyme disease research lab Working in her lab, I was able to use

my de


What was the research study you were working on? - Ans:✔✔-So, we worked on a few throughout the

summer. But this one specifically we were looking at a possible link between several inflammatory

diseases like MS, fibromyalgia, rheumatoid arthritis, chrons disease. We also were looking to see if there

was a connection with these disease and Lyme disease as many of the symptoms are similar. What I did

was I has one on one consultations with participants, I would take down their health history and explain

the study and what we hoped would come from it and then I would kind of get to know their story, when

their symptoms started and how it affected their quality of life. We would get a blood sample and a urine

sample which were used to detect for possible similarities in biomarkers.


Another one we were working on was looking at Aspirin Use, Compliance, and Knowledge of Anticancer

Effect in the Community. To determine aspirin use and therapy compliance (never or rarely missing a

study. Prospective data were collected during a 1-year period from patients in our general surgical clinic

regarding aspirin use, comorbidities, adverse effects, and awareness of anticancer effect. Statistical

analysis was performed. Knowledge of aspirin's anticancer effect is low. These reasons include problems

in the nature of the physician-patient relationship, poor access to specialty care, poverty, lack of

adequate health information. The community where this study took place was rural and these issues are

common, and all have been shown to correlate with underuse in the aforementioned studies.


We recently got this research published in the spring.


And then at the end of the summer, we started my honours research project, which was the project I

worked on throughout my senior year of university. I e


What are your plans if you do not get accepted (Make sure they know you will do what it takes to apply

again)? - Ans:✔✔-Apply again. And again until I get in. Optometry is the career I want. There is no plan B.

In the mean time, I will do what it takes to make myself a better applicant.


You have a pediatric patient, and you had to put some eye-drops on him, and the kid's father is not

present, and the kid starts to throw a fit, but you really need to put the drops on him, how would you

deal with the kid? - Ans:✔✔-If the parent has given permission to treat the child, start by trying to calm

him down. I wouldn't want to cause a fear of the eye doctor. Have kid get in a comfortable position, then

put the eye drops in the corner of the eye and let them roll into the centre of the eye. Let them know the

entire procedure so they are not startled or scared of uncertainty.
