How did you prepare for the interview?

sdn.com (wrote out answers to the questions that were posted on this page -- all of the questions that I was asked during my interview had been posted on this site), interwiew workshop, reviewed LECOM app

What impressed you positively?

The people who interviewed me seemed honestly interested to find out about me. Although they did ask me pointed questions, my responses elicited stories from them about their experiences in research. The student ambassadors that you meet at lunch will answer your questions honestly.

What impressed you negatively?

We were not allowed to view the anatomy or microbiology labs.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

That Erie is not as cold as I was led to believe. The LECOM admissions officers pointed out that they liked to see suits that were not black, (despite what interview counselors generally tell you.) My advice, if you can, wear a suit of a color other than black. The admissions officers responded very favorably to that. :-)

What are your general comments?

We received a different article to read (not HDL/LDL), and they asked about it in the interview. All in all, I enjoyed my interview. Try to be as collected, and calm as possible!

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
