How did you prepare for the interview?

Read every post I could find on SDN dealing with the school.

What impressed you positively?

Small class size, extremely cohesive student body, all students get new laptops, the opportunity to do rotations at Grady Hospital.

What impressed you negatively?

Some of the facilities were older.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

The interview is unique in that it is not completely open or closed file. The interviewer sees your entire file except MCAT scores and GPA a week in advance. Then, five minutes before the interview, they take your scores to the interviewer.

What are your general comments?

I was with the morning interview group. Since I was early, the admssion director allowed me to sit in on a first year physiology lecture. No school I've interviewed at has done that. At 10:00, we were taken to an upstairs room where Dr. Roaf allowed us to ask question. He spoke about financial aid and talked a little about our interviewer. We each had a one on one interview that lasted from 15-50 minutes. After the interview, we were take back to the upstairs board room where a nice lunch was waiting. At this point, the afternoon interview group came in. We all ate lunch together and talked to second year students about the school. They took us on a tour and we were finished by 1:20. It was a great experience.
