💬 Interview Process

What is one of the specific questions they asked you?

see above

What was the most interesting question?

My interviewer just asked me to summarize my life up to the present and explain what has led to me to choose medicine. I felt as though he really wanted to get to know me and to make the interview as relaxed as possible.

How did you prepare for the interview?

Reread my AMCAS and secondary app, read through the Miami website

What impressed you positively?

Everything! The students are so genuinely happy at Miami. My interviewer was very laid back and made every effort to make the interview as painless as possible. He just wanted to hear my life story and how it was that I came to choose medicine. The hospital is enormous (which in my opinion is a definite positive) but the faculty and students seemed very close knit. The curriculum changes made a few years ago seemed to have improved the program significantly and the students say they really like the way it is now structured. Dean Hinkley is about as friendly as they come!

What impressed you negatively?

absolutely nothing

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

Miami traffic is pretty bad.
