How did you prepare for the interview?

Re-read my Northwestern secondary, read a book about the healthcare system, read this website.

What impressed you positively?

Northwestern is located in a really nice part of Chicago with accessible public transportation. The hospital was great and the students were friendly and intelligent. I was especially impressed that the students seem to have plenty of time to participate in extracurricular activities, and several of them even work part-time.

What impressed you negatively?

Nothing.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

I spent way too much time stressing about this interview. The panel interview actually turned out to be less stressful than some of the one-on-one interviews I've had.

What are your general comments?

I was really nervous about the interview because I've never had a panel interview before and a lot of the questions that I read on this website seemed bizarre. I was worried that the other students on my panel would be super competitive, socially inept, or just plain mean. It turned out that the other two students who interviewed with me were awesome, and we were all asked reasonable questions. Overall, I had a great day at Northwestern and I would be very happy to get accepted.
