How did the interview impress you?
Positively 🙂
What was the stress level of the interview?
2 out of 10

What are your general comments?
The day is run very well by Dr. Hinkley and the rest of the staff. Interviewers are very warm and friendly, and the students are ready and willing to answer everyone's questions. And yet, as perfectly as the day went, they still would like to know how to improve it for the next group of students. In my opinion, that's a true sign of greatness!
💬 Interview Process
How did you prepare for the interview?
SDN, secondary, and the School's website.
What impressed you positively?
Being one of the busiest hospitals in the country, Jackson provides UM medical students with an incredibly wide variety of cases. Whatever you want to see, you will see plenty of it there. It also sounded to me like research opportunities were readily available for any students who were interested.
What impressed you negatively?
Nothing about the school; only the Miami area. One of the students at lunch noted that some people forget that Miami is a big city like any other, and Jackson Memorial Hospital is right in the middle of it. I could very easily get used to it, though.
What did you wish you had known ahead of time?
The the medical school and the law school at UM compete each year in sporting/fun events for what they call the "Dean's Cup." What a great idea!
