💬 Interview Process

What is one of the specific questions they asked you?

Tell me about your research. (Follow up) How do you take this knowledge and apply it to clinical application?

What was the most interesting question?

What conversations have you had with your father (allopathic surgeon) about osteopathic medicine?

How did you prepare for the interview?

Reviewed secondaries (wasn't really helpful or asked about); reviewed SDN; prepped for the general interview questions.

What was the most difficult question?

If you couldn't handle your undergraduate workload at the time, what makes you think you're prepared at all for medical school's workload?

What impressed you positively?

Really nice facilities, essentially brand new looking. Board scores, match rate and match schools were very good.

What impressed you negatively?

A lot of things actually. People may think this is "nit picking" but few or no other schools do the following things: You were professional attire to class everyday (..."I went to catholic school all my life, you get used to it." ...No, f you. I don't want to learn pharm or biochem with a tie strangling me all day) ; You pick a seat in lecture the first day of class before you know anyone else, and that is your assigned seat...FOR THE NEXT 2 YEARS. There is absolutely nothing to do around campus, unless you enjoy picking tobacco.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

Nothing really.
