How did you prepare for the interview?

looked on this site, read How To Get Into Medical School, practiced answering questions A LOT <<really helped me feel more relaxed and calm

What impressed you positively?

2nd interviewer laughed at my jokes, responded to my answers, brought me water when i started coughing like crazy

What impressed you negatively?

first interviewer was shooting out questions like a machine, seemed bored or uninterested, responded little, tried to turn what i thought were my strengths into weaknesses--and the med student says he was nice! at least other interviewees said he was like that to them too

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

only 6 people total interviewed on my day toledo chemistry test was not so bad ( i didnt take ap chem) every interviewee except me was accompanied by a parent im glad no current event or questions about abortion/euthanasia/HMO/ Medicare/etc were asked theres a student lounge on the 5th floor thats nice and new, with big tv--watched gilmore girls the hour after my interview :-)

saw a video, took the test, took a tour, asked med student questions, went for interview, finished no later than 3pm this is really a great school
