Eastern Virginia Medical School

How did the interview impress you?

Positively 🙂

What was the stress level of the interview?

4 / 10

0 = Low Stress, 10 = High Stress

What are your general comments?

I was scared walking in, hence the higher than necessary stress rating. However, the panel interview was actually very enjoyable. It was even more conversational than 1-on1's that I have had. This school really has some potential, and I would be very happy to attend there.

What was the most interesting question?

A 70 year old patient that you have seen for 20 years refuses to stop smoking despite your wishes. He comes in and wants needs treatment for something once again related to his habit. Do you eventually refuse treatment?

I was asked this too

What was the most difficult question?

Believe it or not, "What types of books do you read?" That is one of the few questions I see as a "do I tell them what they want to hear?" question.

I was asked this too
