How did you prepare for the interview?

Not much.

What impressed you positively?

Clinical opportunities. Lots of chances to have patient contact. The clinical education is supposed to be second to none. Beaumont and Henry Ford Hospitals are ranked extremely high.

What impressed you negatively?

Scott Hall is old with almost no windows. Since I'm doing MD/Ph.D, some of the research seemed a bit lacking. That's not to say all of it was, but there seemed to be fewer quality labs pertaining to research that I wanted to do. As for the living area, Detroit is, well Detroit. Money for the Super Bowl has helped renovate the downtown. Hardly any of the outlying areas have gotten money though, so they are still pretty downtrodden. Also, while a lot of places tried to sell themselves, Wayne seemed to be more content just letting you decide.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

No responses

What are your general comments?

Interviews were very easy. No difficult questions. as for the wining and dining they give for the MD/Ph.Ds, I can say that this is without a doubt the best I've had. Four star restaurant and an expensive inn. I was really impressed with that.
