How did you prepare for the interview?

SDN prepared me beyound belief. All other comments are very accurate and to the point. Also, reviewed my applications.

What impressed you positively?

The school is beautiful. It is close to both hospitals and there are nearby appartments. The students were friendly and seemed happy. I think this is very important. I also attended a small part of a lecture and it did not seem any different than my undergraduate lectures except the topic here was medicine.

What impressed you negatively?

The hotel that I stayed at was not in the greatest location, but it was very nice. Other people have commented on the city of Norfolk; it is a work in progress and it seems much nicer in my opinion than how others have discribed it.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

No responses

What are your general comments?

I was interviewed by three people. They were very friendly, but ethical questions and questions about reality of medicine, and money and medicine did come up making the interview a bit tense. I had an awsome experience there and loved it.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
