UM is a great school - the two best things about it are its location and the clinical experiences it offers. the students seem to have a good balance between academics and actually having a life. definitely a top choice!
💬 Interview Process
What was the most interesting question?
no real questions. my interview was very conversational and relaxing. we talked more about running than anything else! um doesn't interview that many people, so if you make it to the interview, they really just want to see if you have a pulse and are personable - stuff they can't figure out from reading your file.
How did you prepare for the interview?
the usual: sdn, um website, my amcas application
What impressed you positively?
so much!! first of all, the students at um are great! they were very friendly and they did not look stressed out. secondly, the hospitals offer unsurpassable clinical experiences. you can't ask for better in this quadrant of the u.s. i also thought bookman's speech on research was inspiring and a unique approach from the admission's office. oh, and the food was good too.
What impressed you negatively?
rosentiel (the building where the admissions office and classrooms are located) is a total maze and is pretty old.
What did you wish you had known ahead of time?
impressive faculty accomplishments
