How did you prepare for the interview?

Reviewed application, read SDN, prepped for the standard interview questions (which I didn't really need for this interview), and talked to current UMich students and friends who had interviewed already

What impressed you positively?

You'll hear this again and again, but FRIENDLINESS of the admissions people, the students, and interviewees was awesome. They must put something in the Midwest water. The hospital is HUGE - it has 4 helopads for helicopters to land.

What impressed you negatively?

My legs froze when I stepped out of my car at 7 am...but it warmed up later on.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

That it was going to be so cold in the morning - I would've worn pants instead of a skirt.

Report Response | I was asked this too

What are your general comments?

I had heard from everyone that the interviews were really "chill," but I was still a little tense. They let you interact with the other interviewees pretty extensively, which takes the edge off considerably because everyone is so friendly and open and talkative. I wouldn't even call the interviews "interviews." It was like we started a conversation as we were walking toward the interview room, and we never stopped chatting, and before you know it, 30 minutes are up. Overall, it was just a very relaxed and friendly environment...I had a blast. AND they feed you chocolate eclairs for breakfast...what more can you ask for? Just be careful not to get food on your suit.
