Great, laid back, conversational interview. Nice looking campus. Very friendly people (students and faculty). I was accepted ~7 weeks later, and I will attend.
💬 Interview Process

What is one of the specific questions they asked you?

What is your name? (They have closed file interviews. Also, there had been some scheduling changes, and I was the doc's first interview of the day, so I actually brought her the list of her interviewees for the day.)

What was the most interesting question?

So, is that the biggest red flag on your application?

How did you prepare for the interview?

Read over my app, sdn.

What was the most difficult question?

Why do you want to go into medicine?

What impressed you positively?

Pretty campus, laid back atmosphere, very nice people.

What impressed you negatively?

Lots of people have commented on the great food in the cafe. I thought it was pretty bad. Maybe because I'm a vegetarian. Anyway, the quality of the cafeteria food doesn't make a bit of difference in how I feel about the school.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

That the interview was totally conversational, the interviewer was very nice, and I really hadn't needed to stress out.
