How did you prepare for the interview?

I read all of the entries found here on this website concerning this school. I also read over my application so that I would know exactly what information they were looking at. I also had friends practice asking me questions found in various med prep books and letting them evaluate my responses.

What impressed you positively?

The friendliness and hospitality everyone on campus showed me. The med students themselves were very interested in getting to know me and give me all the pointers I needed. The interviewers did a great job of making the interview itself as casual as possible. I usually have to drink a gallon of water during interviews and I never needed to take a sip during the entire 65 minutes!!!

What impressed you negatively?

It was a bit cold...8 degrees to be exact.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

I spent a couple of days in grand forks and on campus before my interview so I was pretty up to date with how things worked at their school. Be sure to understand their curriculm and how they present their blocks. One of my questions was gear toward this understanding.

What are your general comments?

I had a great interview. I was impressed with how upbeat and relaxed everyone was.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
