How did you prepare for the interview?

I read my AMCAS, their website, SDN!!! : )

What impressed you positively?

The campus is beautiful, the students were friendly, the staff was friendly, and the location is great. Everyone seemed to love the school.

What impressed you negatively?

Nothing!

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

Nothing!

What are your general comments?

One interview was simply just getting to know you and the other interview was more intense with questions about medicine. The interview is somewhat open-file, they know everything about you except for your scores (MCAT, GPA, etc.) The interviews were ~45 min long. They were very low-key and actually fun!!! The tour involved seeing "virtual vince" and the anatomy lab which are so high-tech!!! I loved the school!!!

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
