How did you prepare for the interview?

SDN, read AMCAS application

What impressed you positively?

How friendly and relaxed everyone was. This may be atypical as this was an early decision interview.

What impressed you negatively?

finacial aid talk and tour were both very brief and not very informative.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

My way around the hospital... it's not well marked at all.

What are your general comments?

The interviews at KU are a little strange, so I'll try to clarify here. There are 2 thirty minute interviews. The first is open file and conducted by a MD or PhD who teaches at the school. The second is closed file and conducted by an MD or PhD and a medical student. Both interviews were very relaxed in informal. More like a conversation than an traditional interview.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
