How did you prepare for the interview?

I read the school's website, looked up some information about healthcare and medical ethics, and read the interview feedback on this site.

What impressed you positively?

1) How well students do on the USLMEs and in matching for residencies 2) The campus was nice, had a New England flavor 3) Students seemed pretty laid back but also take the work seriously 4) Even though the area was very suburban there were a few hospitals and medical university buildings 5) Housing was quite decent, cozy.

What impressed you negatively?

1) There is a correctional facility close to the school 2) Thought they tried to play it down, the school does have a Catholic tradition - for example, the Vagina Monologues could not be performed on campus

My interview was very standard. The interviewer was quite amicable. She had a list of questions she wanted to cover and would stop every now and then to discuss something of interest. She was responsive and encouraging. We basically covered my resume, and she would ask follow-up questions accordingly.
