SDN, read UC website, medical ethics websites

What impressed you positively?

The hospital is beautiful, they have a fun student lounge, and the med school campus is separate from the undergraduate campus (though not far away), which I am more familiar with

What impressed you negatively?

I guess the construction, although it didn't seem to be too big a deal, and the new facilities should be impressive.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

You need to get your parking validated before you leave the admissions office. Also, arrive early. You are expected to go find your interview location and be there at the time of your interview. Your interviewer will not pick you up in the Admissions Office.

What are your general comments?

My interviewer was very nice. The fire alarm went off at the beginning of the interview, and we had to move to the hospital cafeteria. He had thoroughly studied my file. There were three parts to the intervew: 1. Academic Experiences 2. Extracurricular Activities 3. Medical Ethics Questions.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
