No responses

How did you prepare for the interview?

Read SDN, School Website, Thought about certain questions on the plane.

What impressed you positively?

I was involved in an interview weekend so everything was very organized and planned. Students and staff/faculty were really friendly. The students even took us out on Friday night.

What impressed you negatively?

Nothing much, I would say location, but if I was from WI this would not be the case.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

That we would be going out on Friday Night....only brought business attire.

What are your general comments?

The weekend was really fun and low key. The students and faculty spent most of the weekend convincing us that UW is the greatest place to attend Medical School. I loved the school and rate it probably as one of the top schools I have interviewed at (its just so far away!) My interviewer was very nice and sociable.....she was reminded me of my mom!

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
