No responses

How is the responsiveness of the admissions office?

No responses

How did you prepare for the interview?

I had my friends conduct mock interviews and give me feed back.

What impressed you positively?

The comradary amound the students was the best Ive seen next to the Pod school in Des Moines.

What impressed you negatively?

The location is an boring burb about 45 minutes from Chicago. Not to say there are lack of patients to be seen during clinical or that the facility wasn't very good, but just nothing there entertainment wise.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

I only wish I didnt waste me time with all the other schools except the Philly school. That was the only other school I would consider.

What are your general comments?

Basically, just knowing why I wanted to be a DPM made me very prepared for the interview. Of course this inheiriently (sp?) involves knowing what being a DPM intails and that of course prepares you for other questions. Basically, if you can show you want to be there, they will accept you. Everyone that interviewed with me was told at the end of the day that they were accepted.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
