Read everything from the Princeton review medical school book to interview advice on monster.com

What impressed you positively?

Case is a Mecca for learning!!!

What impressed you negatively?

The thesis program is a little unorganized at the moment.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

A thesis requirement and student interviews. Do not let your guard down during the student interview, it counts just as much as the faculty interview.

What are your general comments?

Case is an amazing place if you want to be the best and happen to have outstanding scores (e.g. 32+, 3.8+). Remember during faculty interviews, silence is your best friend...do not ramble!!! However, during the student interview, you may need to provoke conversation to capivate the student's interest in your success.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
