How is the responsiveness of the admissions office?

No responses

How did you prepare for the interview?

Did not.

What impressed you positively?

It is a massive institution, and all of it is dedicated to medicine. The curriculum is the most interesting I have encountered. It seems to be a place of endless opportunity.

What impressed you negatively?

Nothing.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

Some interviews take place at SF General, a short and easy shuttle ride away.

What are your general comments?

Very relaxed. Since it is a blind interview you will have to tell your life story twice. Not one question was asked about my grades or MCAT during the interview. But the people are so intelligent and interested (or feign it very well) that the whole experience is very easy. The financial challenge of living in San Francisco is daunting; it is detailed in the Financial Aid presentation.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
