💬 Interview Questions

What is one of the specific questions they asked you?

Tell us about yourself. Why Medicine? Why AZCOM? What undergraduate classes did you take that had nothing to do with medicine, and what did you learn from taking those courses?

What was the most interesting question?

Being a basketball fan and from Utah, do you hate Michael Jordan? (That's still a sore subject!) Is there any circumstance under which you would not play basketball? (I'm a b-ball freak!)

What was the most difficult question?

I wasn't asked any real tough questions. I felt like I was literally having a conversation (with 3 people), so the questions I was asked didn't surprise me at all!

What impressed you positively?

EVERYTHING! I was extremely impressed with the whole visit and would absolutely love attending AZCOM! (We were informed that we would find out the Committee's decision in a week and a half! Now that's pretty fast!!!!) Also, I really enjoyed meeting the other applicants. It appears that AZCOM invites really high quality people for interviews. (With the exception of myself!!!!)

What impressed you negatively?

The exercise facilities and the lack of food on campus. (But hey, do you really think we will have time for food or exercise in med school????) Maybe that's the hidden message?? Ha!

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

Financial Aid packages only cover yourself, and not your spouse or children. Armed Forces, here I come!!!

What are your general comments?

AZCOM is truly #1 in my eyes! (Apparently, EVERYONE that attends the school feels the same! To me, that's exciting!)
