What would your best friend say about you?
What was the most interesting question?
Questions were all standard, found in other reviews of this school. Nothing was that unique.
How did you prepare for the interview?
This website, went over practice questions, got the DO philosophy down, re-read my application, school website etc.
What was the most difficult question?
What is one social issue a community that you hope to change? May not have been worded exactly like that, the interview was mostly a blur!!!
What impressed you positively?
Very student oriented, free primary care, freelabtops and pda's (included in the cost of tuition, nothing is really free!) Almost everything. Asked about problems with 3rd and 4th year stuff, they have new people in charge of that department, so it is getting fixed.

Construction, must share cadavers for anatomy with at least eight people.
