How did you prepare for the interview?

I was a reapplicant so I was familar with the process

What impressed you positively?

My interviewers were trying to come up with reasons as to why I was rejected last year and they couldn't come up with anything

What impressed you negatively?

I was not able to get a rejection interview with Dr.Peden before the interview and I knew I was going to be asked about my reapplicant status, so I felt like I was going into the interview a little blind

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

I was applying for early decision and on the date of my interview there were also regular decision candidates interviewing

What are your general comments?

I am a reapplicant and normally people who are rejected are able to get a rejection interview with Dr. Peden, I was not able to, because he was having surgery. Although that was a little discouraging, out of all of the medical schools that I interviewed at last year, I liked the Brody School of Medicine the best and I knew I didn't want to waste my time applying to a bunch of schools that I don't want to go to, so I applied early decision and I found out that I got accepted a month later! I never did find out why they didn't accept me last year, my application did not change that much, except I had graduated and was working and continued my volunteer experiences.
