How did you prepare for the interview?

Spent some time thinking about possible questions. Checked out this forum. Asked a current student what to expect when I stayed with her.

What impressed you positively?

People were really nice and friendly. My interviewer was a specialist in the exact field I had expressed interest in in my application, so I thought it was either a really good coincidence, or the adcom had matched me with him beforehand. Everyone was relaxed and the admissions people were sure to make us feel at ease.

What impressed you negatively?

Not much! Lots of construction going on, which can be dusty and noisy at times.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

Michigan gives full scholarships! Ann Arbor is beautiful.

What are your general comments?

I was awed. My interviews were all very positive and my interactions with the current students very informative and friendly. Ann Arbor is a pretty and bustling college town and there are tons of things to do there. UMich has a great reputation among residency directors and both the basic science and clinical professors are supposedly amazing.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
