How is the responsiveness of the admissions office?

9 out of 10

How did you prepare for the interview?

Read the UW medical ethics website (not all of them but made sure to read all the questions at least), did a mock interview with a friend, organized stories in my mind that I could quickly connect to common topics/questions

What impressed you positively?

Everyone was so warm, nice, and yet still professional. The interview portion of the day went by quickly. The Dean was so so nice and straightforward about what they wanted out of us, etc

What impressed you negatively?

Almost nothing. Only thing is that the financial office is the office for the entire school (not just CMS) so at some points it was a bit out of touch. For example, talking to all of us like we were kids, when it’s a relatively nontrad friendly school.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

N/A

What are your general comments?

It was a great interview experience and it consolidated even more that it was my top choice.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
