How is the responsiveness of the admissions office?

No responses

How did you prepare for the interview?

Reviewed my application, this website, Princeton Review book on medical school (very helpful), talked to people who have had similar experiences, and had a good time the previous day (proved to be a good stress reducer)

What impressed you positively?

I loved the general attitude of the students. They seemed very content and I also detected a general sense of collective solidarity.

What impressed you negatively?

Nothing really. I was quite impressed with the school.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

Morning traffick was worse than I predicted. I did some detailed research on the school so I nearly eliminated the element of surprise.

What are your general comments?

The entire experience was more comfortable and pleasant than I thought it would be. I felt that the interviewers tried their best to learn more about me beyond the numbers. It was more like a conversation rather than an inquisition, which I enjoyed.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
