How is the responsiveness of the admissions office?

How did you prepare for the interview?

read over my secondary, looked at this website and practiced answering the questions out loud to myself (really helped), read up on school online

What impressed you positively?

the people were so friendly and welcoming and chill! med students were happy. the other interviewees with me were cool too--they were people I'd be happy being in a class with.

What impressed you negatively?

not too much diversity in the student/applicant body--but that could've just been a fluke for that particular interview day

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

med school interviews are not that stressful!! it was my first one so I was pretty nervous, but really, it wasn't bad at all, they really just want to have a conversation with you and get to know you.

What are your general comments?

I had a great time. I liked the school a lot better after the interview day! They're really fast about the decision, I got my acceptance two weeks after my interview.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
