How did you prepare for the interview?

Looking over UA interview questions on this website.

What impressed you positively?

The enthusiasm of everyone involved in the process. The relaxed atmosphere of the whole process. Their willingness to explain the selection process.

What impressed you negatively?

My &quot;community&quot; physician interview was in northwest Glendale/Peoria, almost as far as my interview in Tucson. (I live in Tempe)

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

Wish I would have thought up more school specific questions for both interviewers.

What are your general comments?

The entire process was very relaxed, the on campus interview doc was very friendly, told me what he thought of how I interviewed. The free lunch was nice, but I wasn't very hungry b/c I had an afternoon interview. After lunch they gave a tour, talked about their admissions process and the interviews followed.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
