How did you prepare for the interview?

Read over AMCAS, school website, this site, mock interview, read some books on health care

What impressed you positively?

Pretty much everything. One of my interviewers stressed that U of M really keeps the "triangle" of research, patient care, and teaching "equilateral." I found this analogy to epitomize the U of M experience.

What impressed you negatively?

Nothing

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

An addition to the children's hospital was just signed off by the Regents of the university...sweet.

What are your general comments?

You have to wake up at the ungodly hour of 6am to get up there by 715am. Breakfast is followed by a welcome and brief talk. You have session on financial aid as well as computing resources. The three interviews are back-to-back, which makes you feel as though you're on a game show (behind door number 2 is Dr. So-and-so). After that, you eat lunch solely with students and take a tour.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
