⭐ Overall Impressions

How did the interview impress you?

No change 😐

What was the stress level of the interview?

3 out of 10
0 = Low Stress, 10 = High Stress

What are your general comments?

Overall, pretty much what you would expect. Be ready with some questions of your own for the interviewers and be ready to explain any weak points in your background. Surprisingly, in neither interview did I get asked why I wanted to be a doctor or why I wanted to go to Carolina.
💬 Interview Process

What is one of the specific questions they asked you?

Tell me about your (fill in the blank with bad class) grade.

What was the most interesting question?

Give me 3 adjectives to describe your mother and your father, respectively. Then which are you most like.

How did you prepare for the interview?

Reread my essays, kept up with current events, this site, practice interviews with friends.

What was the most difficult question?

If you could talk to any three people other than family members, living or dead, who would they be and what would you ask them?

What impressed you positively?

The atmosphere was like one big family and everyone, from the office staff to the students to the interviewers, were really friendly.

What impressed you negatively?

Things seemed a little disorganized. One of my interviewers apparently never got back in touch with the office to confirm so someone new stepped in the morning of and he didnt have a complete file on me. Also our student tour guides were late and the tour was kind of haphazard.
