How is the responsiveness of the admissions office?

No responses

How did you prepare for the interview?

watched the news, read the Macleans, read my applications, introspection, visited the med student forum online

What impressed you positively?

A very friendly 4th year med student chatted with me for quite a while before I was called to the interview

What impressed you negatively?

The interviewers were quite nice but felt distant at times. I don't know if they really cared about what I said because they didn't ask any follow-up questions. I find the interview to be too standardized, too structured, too impersonal.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

Various examples of other people demonstrating integrity. How to react when you can't think of an answer.
