What are your general comments?
I was dissapointed with the interview process because we only got one interview and when we got there, we were rushed off to our various interview locations. I handed my interviewer my file and he had me wait in the hall while he reviewed it. He didnt even ask too many questions about my file, but when I sat down, he said "so, any questions?" and the rest of the interview consisted of me asking questions and him doing most of the talking. I was a bit dissapointed because he knows me through the questions that I asked about the school, which werent too exciting. And he didnt know too much about the mechanics of the med school, so it wasnt too helpful for me and made him feel uncomfortably when I asked him about the curriculum and related things.
💬 Interview Process
How did you prepare for the interview?
skimmed the website, StudentDoctor... This was my fourth interview so I was pretty comfortable with the process at this point.
What was the most difficult question?
Your MCAT score- What happened? (After a very stimulating discussion he cracked this one out)
What impressed you positively?
The students were SO happy (though they didn't really portray WHY), the quality of clinical experiences
What impressed you negatively?
They made no effort to sell the school to us-- no talk from the dean, no financial aid talk... it was very informal and sort of rushed.
What did you wish you had known ahead of time?
The express bus was a great way to get to the Bronx from the city.
