How did you prepare for the interview?

Read SDN, reviewed my AMCAS, read up on current healthcare issues, and thought about some of the ethics questions that might come up.

What impressed you positively?

Students seemed like a cohesive group and the new facilities are a plus. Wide diversity of clinical sites. Also, students seem well prepared for the boards.

What impressed you negatively?

I have a dog, so I can't live in the on-campus housing which is much cheeper than the off-campus housing in the area. Also, we didn't get to see the new childrens hospital or the main hospital on campus during the tour and I didn't have time to check them out before my flight.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

nothing, I was overprepared.

What are your general comments?

The interview was very relaxed, we just went over some of the experiences on from my AMCAS essay which the interviewer read at the begining of the interview.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
