What are your general comments?

The people that interview you (faculty & students) are vrey nice and do their best to put you at ease. They are also very honest about the educational quality and curriculum. They will tell you straight off which classes are not the best and why, but they also talk about what they're doing to improve that. If you interview there, write down the questions that you have in advance and any that you think of during the meeting before the interviews. The people interviewing you really want to help you.

Interview questions they asked

What would you fix with health care? How would you do it?

I was asked this too

What was the most interesting question?

The student interviewer had asked me a lot about the classes that I had took in undergrad. I had two minors and went on foreign term to Asia, so he had a lot of questions.

How did you prepare for the interview?

Read through other's feedback here, looked at the website, good night's sleep.

What impressed you positively?

This isn't the first time I interviewed here. (wait-listed last year) I still love how outgoing and laid back people at UW are. It's totally not an up-tight, overly-competitive environment.

What impressed you negatively?

Yup - med sciences building still ancient. BUT - new building open next winter.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

Nada
