Would you lie to an insurance company to get an MRI done? (That question sucked)

What was the most interesting question?

Nothing that interesting, all pretty much conversational.

What was the most difficult question?

How come doctors lose their passion as they approach residency and become more business like. (Kinda through me off, but I disputed that not all doctors are this way. Hope it worked.)

How did you prepare for the interview?

SDN, MCO Website, Mock Interview, read over my primary and secondary application.

What impressed you positively?

The focus on the students impressed me greatly. They really make it apparent that the school is there just for the medical students. There is no undergrad attached to divert any resources away from the med students. Facilities are pretty sweet, clean, and new. All buildings are connected. 4 students to one cadaver. Pretty nice curriculum, more focused on problem based learning. 40% of lectures had been cut down to fit in more PBL. I was pleasently suprised by this school and hope to be accepted. Cross your fingers :)

What impressed you negatively?

Toledo is no vacation resort. But it has everything you pretty much need. Plus how much free time do you get anyway as a med student?

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

Be prepared for a lot of walking and talking.

What are your general comments?

I spoke with two physicians. Both of them were extremely nice and friendly to talk to. I really enjoyed the conversations we have. I am not even sure if I can call my second interview an actual interview, the Dr. just told me why MCO is a great school. Not sure if that is good or not but we filled an hour through me asking questions about the school.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
