No responses

How is the responsiveness of the admissions office?

No responses

How did you prepare for the interview?

Read over the MSAR, re-read my secondary essay, and read over my application.

What impressed you positively?

The people were all tremendously generous and everyone loved the school.

What impressed you negatively?

There is so much security to get on the campus that you have to get an early start. Also, they don't tell you that you need to have a copy of the interview invite ready to show the guards at the entrance.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

I wish I had known who my interviewer would be, but that's not an option, so c'est la vie!

What are your general comments?

Wonderful experience. Anyone already wanting to go there will only supplement their positive view of the school. If you're just wanting to go there because they pay your way and because there's no malpractice, they'll figure it out in the interviews and they'll weed you out. Only apply there if you're committed to military medicine (not the same as medicine in the military) and be sure to listen to the briefing.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
