How did you prepare for the interview?

THIS WEBSITE, thanks! Looked over AMCAS, secondary, and Wayne website

What impressed you positively?

Very enthusiastic tour guides (2 for only 4 interviewees) and nice medical school. Excellent clinical opportunities in hospitals (connected by tunnels!) and Detroit. Friendly students, not much competition.

What impressed you negatively?

I had to wait 2 hours in between the tour and my interview! They only have one tour at noon for both the morning and afternoon interviewers. I had to ask to see the library and hospitals, but they gladly showed them to us. It's in Detroit, so not visually appealing or entirely safe.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

Nothing really

What are your general comments?

Very relaxed and friendly. I arrived for the tour at noon, which was helpful. They took us to lunch at the student cafeteria, and then I had to wait a couple of hours for my interview. I guess there weren't any lectures for me to sit in on, because I had to just wait. My interviewer was very quiet but said this would be a relaxed experience, and it was. He just asked questions to get to know me, really.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
