How did you prepare for the interview?
Visited the school about a month in advance. Got to meet the people in the admissions office, as well as several physicians and students. Also got briefed on the curriculum and the school in general while I was there. Then the usual- reading SDN, brushing up on my answers to the most common questions, and reading about the school online.

Every student seemed to genuinely enjoy being there. Everyone was very friendly and helpful. The building (school, inpatient clinic) is brand new. The children's floor of the hospital is great. Everything is awesome.
What impressed you negatively?
The cost.

No surprises.
