Medovo. Practice makes Match

Terms

The rules for using Medovo.

These are the terms for using this site and its practice stations. Prices, what a purchase includes and how refunds work are covered separately, in the terms of sale and the refund policy. You agree to those when you buy.

1. Using this site

By reading this site, joining the waitlist or running a station, you accept these terms. If you don’t accept them, please don’t use the site. You must be at least 16 and old enough to enter a contract where you live.

2. We are independent

Medovo is an independent test-preparation service. We are not affiliated with, endorsed by, or sponsored by the NRMP®, AAMC®, ERAS®, Acuity Insights, McMaster University, or any medical school. The Match® is a registered trademark of the National Resident Matching Program.

When we name a test, a format or an organisation (MMI, CASPer®, the Match®), we do it only to describe what our practice is for. Those names belong to their owners, and nothing on this site claims them or suggests their approval. Our own name, wordmark, station scripts, scoring rubrics and report formats belong to us.

3. This is practice, not advice

Medovo is interview practice. It is not medical advice, legal advice, or admissions counselling, and nothing it produces should be used to make a decision about a real patient, a real application or a real career. Every scenario, patient and relative in a station is invented. Any resemblance to a real person or a real case is coincidence.

Stations deal with death, illness, conflict and mistakes, as real interviews do. If any of these topics is hard for you personally, keep that in mind before you start a station.

4. We do not promise you an interview or a seat

Practising with us does not guarantee an interview invitation, a higher MMI score, an offer, a residency position, or a match. No one selling interview practice can honestly promise these, because they don’t make those decisions. If you see a claim like that anywhere on this site, it is a mistake. Please tell us.

5. The feedback is machine-generated

The examiner is not a real person. The face, the voice and every reply are generated by software, and so is the scoring in your report. It can be wrong. It can score the same station differently on two runs. It can miss something a human interviewer would notice, or flag something a human would let pass. Treat the feedback as a second opinion on your delivery, not a verdict, and not as a substitute for a mentor, an advisor or a mock interview with a real person.

6. The waitlist

If you join the list, we email you once, when the product opens. It is not a reservation, a place in a queue, a promised price or a promised discount. We may close the list, delay the launch or change the product before then. What we do with your address is described in the privacy policy.

7. Things not to do

8. What you say in a station

Every station is recorded: video of the examiner, both voices, and a transcript of what you said. We ask for your consent to this on a separate screen before your first station. Accepting these terms is not that consent. A station can’t run without recording, because the report is built from the transcript.

Your camera is optional. If you turn it on, you see yourself on the screen, and only you see it: the picture is not recorded and is not sent anywhere.

What you say is yours. We don’t keep the video or the audio: your browser records them and saves the file on your computer. We will not train anything on your recordings or transcripts, or show them to anyone, without asking you first and separately. The privacy policy has the full details: who receives what, for how long, and how to have it deleted.

9. Payment and refunds

Prices, what a purchase includes and how long access lasts are in the terms of sale. How to get a refund is in the refund policy. This page covers using the site; those two cover buying.

10. Availability

The site is provided “as is”. We don’t promise that it will be available at any given moment, that the launch date will hold, or that the product will keep every feature this site describes. We may change or remove features, and we may take the site down. To the extent the law where you live allows it, we exclude implied warranties and we are not liable for indirect or consequential loss. Where our liability cannot be excluded, it is limited to the amount you have paid us. None of this limits liability for fraud, or for anything else the law does not let us limit.

11. Changes to these terms

When these terms change, so does the date at the top. If a change affects you, for example what we do with your recordings or what you are buying, we will email you or ask you again before your next station. You won’t need to check this page for it.

12. Disputes

These terms and the terms of sale do not take away any consumer rights you have where you live. If either of them conflicts with your local consumer law, your local law applies.

If something goes wrong, please email hello@medovo.app first. Most problems can be sorted out that way.

13. Contact

Medovo is run by one person, Dmitry Shatalov, who is self-employed in Russia. Questions, complaints, takedown requests and reports of mistakes all go to hello@medovo.app. Registration details are on the terms of sale page.
