How did you prepare for the interview?

SDN, thought about my responses to potential questions

What impressed you positively?

The students love their school and were very helpful.

What impressed you negatively?

The fact that you have to go to Harlingen to get one-on-one experiences. You can get this at other school without having to move. Also, most Texas medical schools have changed their curriculum a long time ago to reflect the current trends in teaching medicine. This school is only changing their curriculum because their accreditation agency said they have to.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

Warning: This is the most confusing medical school campus I have ever been to. Allow plenty of time to get to your interview just in case. In fact, one of the other interviewees became lost and ended up in a locked mental ward!

What are your general comments?

This is probably the least impressive of the UT schools. Of course, I will be thrilled to be there if this is where I get matched to however

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
