Why do you want to be a doctor? The interviewer then proceeded to ask about 6 or 7 further questions that were more specific than but related to this question.

I was asked this too

What was the most interesting question?

How are you tied to Nebraska (as in the state, not necessarily the university)?

I was asked this too

I was asked this too

How did you prepare for the interview?

Research the school website to find out current events and curriculum/special programs, review the forum interview questions, review my AMCAS file.

What impressed you positively?

Excellent technological investment into educating doctors. Contrary to big name schools, which invest most of their technology into research, Nebraska really seemed to focus most of their funds on ways to improve the education of doctors--which is why I'm going to med school, not getting a PhD.

What impressed you negatively?

No interaction with real patients until the 3rd year. However, they do have hired actors and at least 6 "millon dollar men" which you practice on in the first and second years.
