Pretty general questions.

Report Response | I was asked this too

What was the most difficult question?

I was asked to comment on an ethical issue in medicine. No topic was provided. I just thought it strange that I was to pick any issue at all and talk about it.

Report Response | I was asked this too

What impressed you positively?

They are headed in the right direction. They seem dedicated to improving the learning and practicing atmosphere at the University. Enormous financial efforts are underway to renovate the Medical School Campus and a brand new research tower is opening up soon that will provide a lot of opportunities.

Report Response | I was asked this too

What impressed you negatively?

The interviewer seemed to have no sense of humor. He stared at me blankly a lot, and it was a little uncomfortable.

Report Response | I was asked this too

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

Get a map of campus b/c you'll get lost if you've never been there. Leave yourself time to check it out b/c it's pretty large.

Report Response | I was asked this too

What are your general comments?

Pretty conversational. My interviewer had a cold, so he seemed a little disinterested in the process, but he was very friendly and very open about what to expect next. I got a good handshake at the end and he told me he'd like to see me in the entering class...I am hoping he doesn't tell that to everyone.
