⭐ Overall Impressions

How did the interview impress you?

Positively 🙂

What was the stress level of the interview?

6 out of 10
0 = Low Stress, 10 = High Stress

What are your general comments?

Interview wasn't great but lunch and the tour were. Some students really took advantage of NYU's "free lunch" and bought over $12 worth of food... I don't recommend the kosher meal, haha. The blizzard that day was interesting, as well.
💬 Interview Process

How did you prepare for the interview?

Reviewed commonly asked interview questions and my application.

What was the most difficult question?

You have an audience in front of Congress to discuss a medical issue. Pretend you are presenting to me.

What impressed you positively?

Students were really cool.

What impressed you negatively?

Interviewer (the dean of admissions) seemed tired of interviewing and wasn't really paying attention to me. Constant distractions in the office (phones ringing and fax machines whirring) increased my stress.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

The facilities are pretty old and catacomb-like... but overall not bad.
