How did you prepare for the interview?

What impressed you positively?

The school is awesome, the students were great, the facilities were great, the faculty members I met were outstanding also. Plus the interview day was extremely organized and even included a tour of the city.

What impressed you negatively?

Nothing really, Toledo isn't the most happening town, but I come from a similar city, so I can't say much :-)

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

I turned my secondary right before the deadline. Knowing how quickly they go through their applications, I would have had a really early interview.

What are your general comments?

Great! It probably was the most difficult interview I've ever had. A lot of hypothetical questions were asked, as well as healthcare policy questions. However, honesty is always the best policy, if you go over all the questions that could be asked and form your own opinions, you should be fine. MCO is an awesome school, the curriculum, students, profs, administrative people were all fantastic.
