What are your general comments?
Everyone was so nice and kept saying to the students we were wonderful.. and the interviewers seemed to be recruiting students rather than interviewing..and even said, we're doing the interview to be sure your file's correct and you're not an ax murderer... but are they still accepting students??..NO, only waitlisting. So why not tell you that upfront????
💬 Interview Process
How did you prepare for the interview?
Read my application.
What impressed you positively?
Facilities, friendliness of staff.
What impressed you negatively?
Everyone was so friendly and said point blank you are wonderful. To be here for an interview, you must be wonderful. THe first interviewer told me my file was great and what could he do to persuade me to attend VCOM... I loved the school to find out that it was all fake. I was not accepted even though 2 of 3 interviewers said unless I was "an ax murderer", I was in. Don't joke with that with premeds.
