What was the most interesting question?

The group question was the most interesting. The three of you make up a committe to decide what happens to a resident in your hospital that has always done a great job in the hospital but recently forged a signature to complete a feed tube. He accidently placed the tube into the lungs and the patient died. How do you handle this situation?

What was the most difficult question?

I thought questions were going to be a lot more challenging at NU from past SDN posts, but I guess I got lucky. The group question was probably the most difficult

What impressed you positively?

The school slowly adapts you to med school life. The first year students start off in orientation, then take a fairly simple class for a couple weeks, and finally start building up to the more typical med school class. The location is also incredible.

What impressed you negatively?

I wanted to answer questions that were asked to the other applicants in my interview and maybe pass some of my questions off to them.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

No responses

What are your general comments?

The interview was not nearly as stressful as I anticipated. We all meet in the admissions office. We are taken to another room for a little talk, and then we head to our group interviews. The group interviews are the same as normal interviews, but you get a chance to sit back and listen to other candidates respond to questions. It is really interesting how other applicants respond. We also had an individual interview. I spent about a half an hour talking to one of the nicest person I've ever met. It was very laid back, and we talked about anything I felt like telling him.
