What are your general comments?

UCHSC is in a period of transition and will probably be an amazing medical school in a few years. But right now I think it lacks diversity and fails to inspire its medical students to become truly thoughtful and wise practitioners.
💬 Interview Process

What is one of the specific questions they asked you?

Tell me about yourself.

What was the most interesting question?

Have you ever made a decision that appeared correct at the time, but now you realize was the wrong decision?

How did you prepare for the interview?

Read this site, read over the school's website and kept up on my reading.

What was the most difficult question?

What is self-directed learning and are you one?

What impressed you positively?

The new campus will be amazing once it is built and the students are friendly and excited about their school.

What impressed you negatively?

The old campus is a bit rundown and not very cohesive. Also, the transition from the new to old campus will be complex and probably difficult at times for the students and faculty. Finally, medical schools are often not known for their diversity--ethnically, religiously or otherwise, but U of Colorado medical school seemed especially homogenous.
