How did you prepare for the interview?

Read SDN, went through the OSU website, read a few medical ethics books, talked to a med student who had interviewed at OSU a year previously

What impressed you positively?

The facilities are fantastic. There is a lot of construction going on around campus, but none of it is distracting enough to take away from the positives of the school. The staff is also very friendly and accommadating.

What impressed you negatively?

The weather. I'm from a tropical climate, hence any temperature below 60 degrees feels to me as if my nose is going to freeze off.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

Nothing really. It really helped to talk to someone who had been through the interview process before. This individual really helped me to cover all of the details (eg. breath mints, umbrella) that I may have overlooked on my own.

What are your general comments?

I had a great time and was extremely impressed by the people and facilities at OSU.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
