How did you prepare for the interview?

Read the reviews on SDN and looked at the website.

What impressed you positively?

Everyone was really friendly and Lexington is an absolutely beautiful city. It seems like the classes are really close. The schedule is great- class in the morning and most afternoons free. The student lounge was really nice and unique.

What impressed you negatively?

The facilities weren't the greatest, but they were passable.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

That one of my interviews would be with a current med student- I would have thought of more questions to ask her.

What are your general comments?

Arrived at 9:15, watched a short video about the school, first interview, came back and chatted with other interviewees, had second interview, ate lunch, went on the tour, done by 1:00. It was a great day and quite efficient.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
