How is the responsiveness of the admissions office?

10 out of 10

How did you prepare for the interview?

Practice interviews with a few different people that I trusted. Practiced answering common medical school questions.

What impressed you positively?

It felt like everyone there, the president and dean, the interviewers, and the student panel, wanted me there. It didn't feel like they were looking for reasons to reject me, but for reasons to accept me. They also gave me a ton of advice for starting med school. To help ease nerves for an interview, they also had a recruiter come in ahead of the interviewers to ask me what I did for fun and start a fun conversation

What impressed you negatively?

Not much. The school felt warm and welcoming, and I believed that they were really sincere in wanting to train good doctors

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

I wished I'd brought something to write down advice that I was given. Definitely ask if you can though, I don't know if that's allowed or not

What are your general comments?

The school seems like a great place!

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
