How did you prepare for the interview?

SDN, interview book.

What impressed you positively?

The location. Sure it was 17 degrees, but Erie is bigger than I thought it was and had a reasonable amount of stuff to do. I'm going to med school to learn. Oh, and the cost of living is REALLY cheap.

What impressed you negatively?

Not much.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

I need a coat to go over my suit.

What are your general comments?

I came into the interview process not expecting to like this place much, now it is on top of my list. If you don't mind the cold there is tons of stuff to do when it is warm. The clinical rotations send you all over the place, including Pittsburgh, Buffalo, and Clevelend if you would like. I just wish I had done better on the interview. I feel like I didn't present myself as well as I could have, and wiffed a couple of questions that I had time to prepare for.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
