How did you prepare for the interview?

SDN, reviewed my AMCAS, mock interviews with my sister, know your med issues!

What impressed you positively?

The students are so happy and enthusiastic about their school. There seems to be a strong social cohesion. Administration seems to be strong and supportive of their students. It is definitely a ripe learning environment. Also, the statistics for USMLE impressed me!--and the fact that the standardized patient began at UF! The students there are helpful and even led me to different parts of the med school when I became lost! They are happy for the interviewees--we were the first group of the class of 2009. Also, Robyn and Denise had written for each interviewees, their schedules and directions how to get to the rooms where our interviewers would be. No maps and leave us alone--very nurturing and hand-holding, it seems.

What impressed you negatively?

not applicable. but maybe the lack of seats during lunch and long line for food. nothing related to the med school though. I enjoyed the brownies..yummy chocolate!

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

n/a

What are your general comments?

Just be yourself. Relax and socialize with your fellow interviewees. You are all in the same boat--so have fun! And talk about topics (to each other) besides medicine just to relax! ie football, fun stories etc. RELAX!
