No responses

How is the responsiveness of the admissions office?

No responses

How did you prepare for the interview?

Read their brochure, review notes from last year, read this website, sleep early

What impressed you positively?

This time? Nothing really, except for the really nice tour guide (an M4)

What impressed you negatively?

The interviewer did not seem to be enthusiastic about my application.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

The interviewer could get confrontational unlike what other people said.

What are your general comments?

It was not the best interview experience I had. The interviwer, who is an administrator, lectured me on why I should apply to 10 different medical schools instead of just two. The interviewer also questioned my volunteer and patient contact experience. Overall, if you don't like me in the first place, then why invite me to fly over to St. Louis for an interview!?

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
