What impressed you positively?

Medical student interview

Report Response | I was asked this too

What impressed you negatively?

Very little information was given about the school. No admission presentation, nothing about final aid. Everything was focused on how they were helping revitalize Detroit and community health care activities.

Report Response | I was asked this too

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

Multiple 30 minutes interviews: 1 faculty, 1, med student, 1 mmi. I thought it was just mmi with app questions thrown in.

What are your general comments?

I would have liked to know more about the school. I have no idea if I would be a good fit for them. Too much time was devoted to the city of Detroit. That's nice but I'm from OOS and I'm going to medical school not moving to Detroit for a career. They interview a lot and have a huge class size 300 students. It's pass/fail and volunteering is required and so is early clinical exposure but very little specifics were given about the program. I really wasn't sure why they asked me to come.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?

Need a admission presentation with tuition cost, scholarships, clinical sites for 3&4th years. Financial aid. It was very unhelpful to watch a video of the Detroit children's choir. It was very unorganized. A lot of waiting. Very limited campus tour of just a few rooms in medical school, library. I would have liked to see more. Did not feel like I learned anything about the program that would make me want to move OOS to attend.
