Why DO? Why AZCOM?

What was the most interesting question?

Fairly standard fare...lots of questions about why DO, why AZCOM, and lots on my background. Very few ethical questions.

None really. I was asked what I would do if a classmate of mine was struggling in a class I was doing well in...but that's not too bad of a quesiton.

No responses

How is the responsiveness of the admissions office?

No responses

How did you prepare for the interview?

Re-read my personal statement, SDN, researched the school's pros and cons.

What impressed you positively?

The campus is beautiful, the students and faculty were really just genuinely friendly, the school is really the best of any DO school as far as board scores. The area seems nice. The people I was interviewing with were an amazing, diverse, awesome group of people. I would love to call them classmates some day.

What impressed you negatively?

The prohibitive cost of attendance. The fact that tuition is jacked up 3-7% every year. The lack of major scholarships (like half-tuition or something like DMU does) to high achieving applicants (MCAT/GPA).

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

Nothing. I had a great idea of what the school was like going in, and it was really shown to be true. I loved the school.

What are your general comments?

See above. It was really low-stress and just excellent.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
