💬 Interview Process

What was the most interesting question?

What would you do if you were an ER doctor in a hospital with a policy to refuse non-urgent care to patients due to budget constraints? (this was a no-stress question because the interviewer told me he just wanted to hear what i thought, since there is no right/wrong answer)

How did you prepare for the interview?

read SDN, school brochure, my app

What was the most difficult question?

Everything felt very conversational...but if I had to pick something - "What do you see yourself doing in the future (as a physician)?"

What impressed you positively?

Friendly, genuine interviewers & fun group atmosphere of the interview day (students very involved, enjoyed meeting other interviewees)

What impressed you negatively?

High price tag.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

This school is not as research-intense as its reputation says - there is a great diversity of interests among the student body.
