How did you prepare for the interview?

SDN, RWJ web page, reread my ethics text book, looked up info on managed care, medicaid/medicare

What impressed you positively?

The students seemed generally easy going and very happy. RWJ does not curve, so it seems like the students genuinely help each other out and work together. Also new labs and small group discussion rooms.

What impressed you negatively?

Lack of parking. I got there an hour early, and still could not find a spot. I had to park in a snow bank.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

No responses

What are your general comments?

I knew that RWJ was my top choice before the interview, but I've walked away from my interview experience wanting to go there even more. My interviewer made me feel totally at ease, she was absolutely wonderful. She asked some tough questions, but she gave me alot of good advice and feedback.
