How did you prepare for the interview?

sdn, wash u website, talked with previous students,went over my application and AMCAS, read a bioethics site and a healthcare book. followed current events.

What impressed you positively?

Everyone was very friendly and helpful. The first year students had a final the following day but took time out to have pizza with us and they seemed very relaxed and at ease considering the test the next day. The new library is wonderful and I loved the anatomy lab.

What impressed you negatively?

The study corrals and classroom area is a bit rundown and doesn't seem to inviting, but they will all be remodeled by 2006 so it's not really an issue.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

Just how low stress the day was going to be. And, don't be worried if you don't have specific q's for your interviewer, you will be asking questions all day so you may not have any left. I wish I had more time to check out St. Louis, but none of the students had bad things to say.

What are your general comments?

I was pleasantly surprised by the entire day. It was my first interview so I was nervous, but there was absolutely no need to be. My interview was almost 2 hours long, but it didn't seem to be long at all. I was simply having a nice conversation with him and I didn't even think he asked me any questions, that's how well things flowed. I was very happy and would love to go to Wash U.
