💬 Interview Process
What is one of the specific questions they asked you?
What would I do if I had a patient who was 13yrs. old and pregnant. What would I do if I had a patient who was elderly and had cancer and refused chemo?
What was the most interesting question?
What did I think of Dr. Kevorkian, and of him going on television? (I really know nothing about Kevorkian besides that he did assisted suicides, and had no idea about the tv question so I had to ask the interviewer for more info. All in all I think I was able to craft a good response about assisted suicide).
How did you prepare for the interview?
SDN, my amcas app
What was the most difficult question?
Explain how you connect to being latina? (it was phrased VERY weirdly, I was unsure what she meant but I talked about everything I do that involves the Hispanic community)
What impressed you positively?
anatomy labs, cheap nice housing across the street, enthusiasm of the students, 1st yrs lecture hall, student diversity and support for minority students.
What impressed you negatively?
location (safe, but didn't click with me), library and computer lab was pretty sad...all of the offices seemed very small and old - honestly I felt kind of claustrophobic there, couldn't really explain it.
What did you wish you had known ahead of time?
my interviewer gave me a ton of hard questions! I didn't really prepare much for it since all the sdn feedback said it was chill.
