How did you prepare for the interview?

StudentDoctor.net and talking to current UT Memphis students about their interview experiences and with a friend who had interviews near the same time I had

What impressed you positively?

The diverse clinical experience available for 3rd and 4th year medical students and the fact that I couldn't find one current student to say a single negative thing about the school, it's ciricculum or it's professors . Dean Strother and Diane Harris are GREAT! They will answer any questions you have and help you in any way possible. The student's were very honest and open about their experiences and even offered to let us e-mail them if we had more questions.

What impressed you negatively?

Really nothing but the fact that it was cold and raining.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

What an impressive ciricculum that the school really has. It was somewhat of an obvious choice for me to apply to UT Memphis because I'm from Tennessee and I go to UT Knoxville. However, after visiting the school, I was really impressed with it's ciricculum and faculty and actually want to go there for those reasons rather than financial/location reasons.
