What are your general comments?
There was a 30-minute open file one-on-one interview followed by a 30-minute closed file two-person interview. It was really low stress. The interviers were not given a prescribed set of questions, so they were just trying to get to know us better so that they could fill out an evaluation sheet.

Do you think healthcare is a right or a privilege?

Reviewed my application, read through studentdoctor.net, and listened to NPR clips.

A family physician's salary is $100-$200 thousand dollars. A specialist makes $1.5-4.0 million dollars. What do you think of this different in salary?
What impressed you positively?
The faculty members were part of the doctors who interviewed. They seemed very pleasant.
What impressed you negatively?
They did a good job.
What did you wish you had known ahead of time?
They said that all EDP applicants must have a good GPA and MCAT scores or they would not have been invited to the interview. If I had known that, I wouldn't have been fretting about justifying the dip in my GPA.
