How is the responsiveness of the admissions office?

How did you prepare for the interview?

I over-prepared. I went over typical interview questions, read up on the school, briefed myself on med ethics, and browsed my application. They did not ask any of the expected question. However, I was really glad I had looked over my application because they asked a lot of questions specifically from my application, especially my essay.

What impressed you positively?

Everybody was really friendly. I also liked the laid-back atmosphere. A lot of the other campuses I visited were very up tight, including the students.

What impressed you negatively?

I was surprised at the lack of formality. There were no administrators present, no presentations, etc.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?
