How is the responsiveness of the admissions office?

No responses

How did you prepare for the interview?

Looked over my amcas app. Wrote out my responses to anticipated questions.

What impressed you positively?

Everyone was very friendly--the other interviewees, current med students, and faculty. The student-host program was good and helped to lessen my anxiety. Both interviews were pretty relaxed, but I really liked the student interview. It was more like a conversation.

What impressed you negatively?

Omaha is COLD! Also, my faculty interviewer talked about 80% of the time, making me wonder if he was learning anything about me besides my listening skills! Also, I didn't see any recycling containers at the school/hospital. And the lunch they served wasn't healthy (fried chicken).

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

No responses

What are your general comments?

Overall, I think it went well. Pretty low-stress.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
