What are your general comments?
Pretty relaxed, but I was anticipating some questions and thought I had strong answers. So when I didn't get asked the standard questions like "Why do you want to go to med school" I worry that I didn't get my full opportunity to shine... However, I think my interview questions were different than most b/c I am an international student.
💬 Interview Process
How did you prepare for the interview?
Read medical ethics books, read interview feedback from this school, re-read AMCAS and suppl. application, researched school extensively
What was the most difficult question?
Why Wayne State? (I am an international student)
What impressed you positively?
The students who gave us our tour were great. They were enthusiastic, but honest - not afraid to tell us about the school's weak points. I really connected with them, and I thought they were great people - makes me think this school turns out good doctors who can relate to others.
What impressed you negatively?
The facilities of Scott Hall were much less than impressive - kinda dark and depressing.
What did you wish you had known ahead of time?
Nothing really. I guess it would be better to know who is interviewing you ahead of time so you can research them, but they do not allow this...
