What are your general comments?
Each of my interviews were 30 minutes. Waiting in the room to be interviewed is a little unnerving, especially when you realize which interviewer is the one that asks questions such as "what is blue?" My interviewers were very easy to talk to, genuine and I thought (hope) that they went well.
💬 Interview Process
How did you prepare for the interview?
Read over my AMCAS, skimmed publications, read SDN and Tufts Website
What impressed you positively?
The Dean of the school showing up and interviewing people...the friendliness of students and staff--the fact that students really felt that they were getting what they were paying for. The school is physically attached to NEMC--an amazing hospital... Not only that, but the affiliated hospitals are also impressive. The match list. Everything!!
What impressed you negatively?
I would say the cost, but I knew what I was getting into when I applied. It is expensive, but, I felt that they did a great job being honest. And, as I mentioned, the students really felt that they got what they were paying for.
What did you wish you had known ahead of time?
Nothing really.
