How did you prepare for the interview?

Reviewed LECOM's website, my application, many different Osteopathic Medicine websites, this website (SDN) and wrote out answers to all the questions posted on this site, just so I wasn't stumbling over things to talk about.

What impressed you positively?

I was suprised how much I loved Erie, and the people. Everybody was so nice and postive about their experiences and time in Erie and at LECOM. I really like the 3 different learning pathway posibilities.

Report Response | I was asked this too

What impressed you negatively?

There are only a few things I didn't like about LECOM, and they aren't major complaints. One, the gym is somewhat pathetic, but they do have many off-campus gyms you can join. Two, the cafeteria is also pathetic, but bringing my own lunch is no problem at all. Three, I don't like the fact that you cannot choose the learning pathway you want, they put in one they think you should be in.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

I dreaded this interview as it was my first interview ever. I wish I had known ahead of time that the interview would be so friendly and personable. They really DID just want to get to know me on a personal level. I was way too stressed out and nervous going into this thing, I thought I would choke. But it was completely stress-free, and the interview commitee I got was very nice and funny, friendly. So, if you have an interview coming up and you're really stressed out and nervous, almost scared, just remember that they are nice people that want you at their school... so go in there and impress them by just being yourself.

What are your general comments?

This experience was one of the best and reassuring things I've ever done in my life. It was great. It started out with a tour, then an overview of Erie, the learning pathways, financial aid, and housing in Erie (very cheap living). Half hour interviews were done between 9:00 and 11:45 am, then lunch with a student from each of the learning pathways, which was very informative. True, the school building is very small, but it doesn't have to be huge to be a great school. I am praying to God that I get into LECOM, either Erie or Bradenton, it doesn't matter. One person interviewing with us was from Bradenton and said it was a great place to live, and would be a great place to go to med school. Every person I met was nice as hell to all of us, and acted like they really did want us there. Not nearly as stressful as I would have thought, and I left Erie with a great impression of the town and of LECOM. Hopefully I get in!
