How is the responsiveness of the admissions office?

No responses

How did you prepare for the interview?

Mock interview, this website, talked to students, and read my application.

What impressed you positively?

Friendly, non-competitive environment, small class sizes, committed to growth and development of the students, and willingness to evaluate the student as a whole rather than just looking at the numbers.

What impressed you negatively?

Nothing.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

The actual classes are held at another location (Veteran's Hospital).

What are your general comments?

Interviewers were very pleasant and seemed to be on my side so that they could present my case to the rest of the Admissions Board. In general, they concentrated on my weaknesses and the questions that they believed the Board would raise. Other then that, they just wanted to get to know me and the reasons I wanted to be a doctor. It is very important that you bring up your weaknesses if they do not come up during the interview, b/c someone on the Board will bring it up and come to their own conclusions.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
