What are your general comments?

It was a good interview day. Everyone was very nice. They give you a card w/ interviewer's address so you can send a thank you card. I don't like to keep track of how long my interviews are, so the time is only an estimation. Rooms are HUGE and nice. I got lost finding my way to my interview and ended up at anatomy lab. The instructor flagged me down and showed me the lab (very nice guy). Then, kept seeing anatomy instructor everywhere (admissions, cafeteria, etc.) and he would always wave and say hello.

Interview questions they asked

Asked if any physicians in family and about my family.

I was asked this too

What was the most interesting question?

He asked me if I liked trig and geometry (because I am a math tutor...I said I did, but I don't) and gave me a math problem!!! He said it wasn't a part of the interview though...it was fun to hash it out even though I couldn't really solve it.

I was asked this too

What was the most difficult question?

look above

I was asked this too

How did you prepare for the interview?

CV, primary, secondary, interview feedback, SDN, and talked to a friend who had been accepted there.

What impressed you positively?

My interviewer. Part of second graduating class at AE. Very funny and distinguished. Gave me a personal tour when he found out I would miss the good parts because of my flight. He LOVED the school and couldn't sing better praises about it.

What impressed you negatively?

Interview day. You just show up, get interviewed, and get a tour...that's it. The time in between those things is up to you. No financial aid talk, or intro to school. Kind of refreshing though....gave me some time to relax.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

pretty extensive security, library is tiny.
