💬 Interview Questions

What is one of the specific questions they asked you?

Asked about almost everything in my AMCAS and Secondary, so make sure to look through those and be able to talk about details. Those are really the only big questions that were asked
Why do you think Wayne State is a good fit for you?
Why do you want to go to medical school and be a doctor?

What was the most interesting question?

This wasn't asked of me, but I know someone who was asked to compare the three in state medical schools (Michigan, Michigan State Human Medicine, and Wayne State) and talk about why each one would/would not fit them.

What was the most difficult question?

Nothing unexpected. Be ready for the usual interview quesitons.
