How did you prepare for the interview?

Read over the brochure, this website, just thought things through.

What impressed you positively?

Everyone at Pitt is incredibly nice! They must put something in the water, because every admissions staff member, faculty member, and student was nothing but helpful and had great things to say about the school. The curriculum seems very effective, I like that they want everyone to do some sort of research during med school. And the simulation lab is awesome!

What impressed you negatively?

Only two current students went to lunch with about 20 of us... so it was a little hard to talk one on one with them. However, the student interview was casual, and I got all of my questions answered there.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

How laid back everyone is... I would have been A LOT less nervous

What are your general comments?

Pitt is awesome! If I knew tomorrow that I got in I would skip the rest of my interviews... too bad we don't find out until Feb or March!

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
