How did you prepare for the interview?

read through nyu's website, reviewed my application and personal statement, my friend and i went through some mock questions the night before -- the harder ethical stuff, none of which came up.

What impressed you positively?

the students love their school! that's about the best thing you can hear, right? additionally, the superb clinical training nyu som is supposed to offer its students because of its hospitals, and all of the clinical programs they have, both in nyc and abroad.

Report Response | I was asked this too

What impressed you negatively?

the actual admissions office and seating areas were a bit drab, but that's the least of it. everything important seemed pretty good to go; the dorms were kinda small, but they're excellent for what you're paying for living in that area of new york -- murray hill is close to everything, and no doubt about it, it's the best located of all nyc medschools.

Report Response | I was asked this too

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

that i was going to love this school as much as i did! i hope i get accepted!

Report Response | I was asked this too

What are your general comments?

the whole experience was great! the interview was actually kinda long since i noticed most people in the waiting area were gone and back in 25 minutes. i took this as a good sign. the interviewer and i just had a regular conversation -- very informal. she asked me the basic questions; i answered. i asked her some questions and she answered. she told me all about this new abroad program they have started in kenya after receiving all this grant money. we spoke about how she also went to nyu, stayed for her residency and now works there. we spoke about the city and what it has to offer. basically: very low stress and congenial. the lunch and the tour that followed were similarly pleasant. the students i met (a 2nd, 3rd and 4th years for lunch) and the two 1st years on the tour talked about how great the student support was, how no one is left behind, how they *do* have free time to enjoy the city, and how everyone who can come to this school should go to this school. i hope not to let them down.
