⭐ Overall Impressions
How did the interview impress you?
Negatively ☹️
What was the stress level of the interview?
4 out of 10
0 = Low Stress, 10 = High Stress
What are your general comments?
Not very friendly people. We didn't get to know anybody and the whole day was completely impersonal. The school is a little big for me. Lunch wasn't so great either. I just didn't feel very welcomed.
💬 Interview Process
What is one of the specific questions they asked you?
What are your strengths and weaknesses?
What was the most interesting question?
Describe a situation where you had to work in a group.
How did you prepare for the interview?
SDN, good night's sleep
What was the most difficult question?
If you're so content with what you're doing now, why do you want to be a doctor? (just caught me off guard the way it was phrased)
What impressed you positively?
Freedom to choose where rotations are, high-tech classrooms
What impressed you negatively?
Didn't get to see much of the school since the dorrs were locked. Didn't get to sit in on a lecture. Too many people interviewing at once. Not very personal. Interview was scripted.
What did you wish you had known ahead of time?
That Erie had 120 inches of snow last year. They said this with a straight face. Great if you like skiing, but I like it a little more temperate.
