💬 Interview Questions ▼

What is one of the specific questions they asked you?

Both the interveiws are equally important. Both the interviewers have access to everything in your application, except GPAs and MCAT scores, and both have 3 questions each that they are required to ask you. Sometimes they slip the questions in converstaion other times they might read them from their piece of paper. Just relax and be yourself. You'll be just fine!

Report Response | I was asked this too

What impressed you positively?

The supportive environment. Emphasis on being 'real' doctor. Commitment to community's health needs. I, for one, like the idea of going someplace else after 2 years!

Report Response | I was asked this too

What impressed you negatively?

The campus was not that impressive over all. Where majority of the med students live, there are rail road tracks near by and apparantly the trains whistel and go by too often at times!

Report Response | I was asked this too

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

U don't get to do disections for anatomy. It is prosections only (which has its advantages and disadvantages).

Report Response | I was asked this too

What are your general comments?

Overall, very positive. The students seemed nice and helpful. There seem to be volutneer opportunites outside classroom that students actively persue. Staff and faculty seemed friendly, helpful and well informed. They interview on Thursdays and review applications on Tuesday night, and if you are accepted they call you Tuesday night itself. I was impressed by this quick turn around time! It saved me a lot of waiting and worrying! :-)!
