How did you prepare for the interview?

SDN, printed a bunch of typical int questions, researched Touro, researched Harlem, had solid answers to these main questions: Why doctor? Why osteopathic med? Why this school? Explain bad grade.

What impressed you positively?

The facility inside is much nicer than I thought. Faculty is amazing and seem really enthusiastic about helping students. Interview was basic questions, nothing too harsh.

What impressed you negatively?

The student ambassador seemed unprofessional and couldn't answer questions well. Interview was back and forth, not too conversational and I kept getting cut off

Not to stress too much ahead of time, it was fairly easy.

What are your general comments?

Come prepared with a list of questions both for interviews and student ambassadors.
