How did you prepare for the interview?

I read the feedback posted on SDN and looked over AZCOM's website

What impressed you positively?

Nice facilities, very friendly faculty and students, relatively cheap cost of living. The students spoke very highly of the school and of their experience there.

What impressed you negatively?

Steep tuition and lack of structured clinical rotations for the 3rd and 4th years. They stress the benefits of having an ambulatory-style training as opposed to ward-based training, but that just means that I'll have to put in the time to schedule my own rotations.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

I spent an hour just sitting and waiting for my turn to interview.

What are your general comments?

Overall a good option for medical school. They boast very high COMLEX I and COMLEX II scores (consistently at the top among all DO schools). The interview was conversational and as stress-free as one can be.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
