💬 Interview Questions ▼

What is one of the specific questions they asked you?

In general he asked me in depth questions about my activities, work and etc. So for instance, he saw I'd gone to the Philippines on a mission trip. So he asked me what I thought was the general state of the country, and what I viewed as the main cause of the deterioration. So we got into a big discussion on history, which ended with us both saying we didn't really know the recent history of the Philippines very well. Stuff like that.

SDN, reread my apps, asked students about my interviewer, tried to get an accurate impression of SLU during the tours.

What impressed you positively?

The people. Everyone's very friendly and intelligent, and the community support network at the med school is great. And the match list, which was fairly impressive.

Report Response | I was asked this too

What impressed you negatively?

The area wasn't that great (though it wasn't that bad), it was just really industrial. Cold as frozen poodles, though I come from San Diego. There's lots of ethnicities in the area, but they seem very segregated.

What are your general comments?

Good. The interviewer seemed to really be just checking to make sure I was human and that my personality matched that of the school's. The entire interview day was totally chill, and I left thinking that I could see myself there.
