What is one of the specific questions they asked you?

Tell me about yourself. Why DO? What is your greatest accomplishment, non-academically related?
What would you do differently to improve verbal score? Greatest strength/weakeness? Most Difficult class? With all of your teaching experience, is that something that your enjoy? Why the drop in QPA your second year?
Why is your verbal score lower than your science scores (my science scores were an 8 and 9 and verbal was 7 so I was surprised at this question)? With all your experience do you know what medical area you are interested in?

What was the most interesting question?

How did you prepare for the interview?

read SDN, read the info packet they sent, prepared answers to basic interview questions that reocurred, reread my aacomas app

What impressed you positively?

florida is beautiful, campus is gorgeous, all the health related schools are on the same campus, everything is brand new, everyone is so friendly

What impressed you negatively?

the fact that in your third and fourth years you might have to relocate to another city in florida if you do not get your top choices in the lottery, didn't get an entire campus tour

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

not to be so stressed out about the interview. they are really just trying to get to know you as a person.

What are your general comments?

I really loved the school. Florida itself is enough to attract anyone to nova but I want a school where I am happy and I honestly think it would be a great place to spend the next 4 years. I am just waiting to see about PCOM but right now nova is my top choice.
