Report Response | I was asked this too

What impressed you positively?

I was very much impressed with Finch's residency match list, their passing rate on the boards, and how the school is making efforts for improvement. Also, staying with a student host was very beneficial in that I gained a student's perspective of the school.

Report Response | I was asked this too

What impressed you negatively?

The interview day ran much longer than we expected due to a cancellation of interviewers. We all had to wait a long time, but the admissions staff was apologetic and they did their best to accommodate people with earlier flights.

Report Response | I was asked this too

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

Renting a car and having a later flight is best, just in case the interview runs long. Be prepared!

Report Response | I was asked this too

What are your general comments?

After interviewing and learning all about the school, I can definitely see myself as a student at Finch. The students were very nice and encouraging, as were the admissions staff and interviewers. I was very nervous in my first interview (with a professor), but I loosened up with my second interview (with a 4th year MD/PhD student). Also, I can deal with the ABCDF grading system and living in the middle of nowhere for 2 years before moving to downtown Chicago. I had a very positive experience, and I am very excited at the possibility of attending Finch.
