✅ Interview Preparation and Impressions

No responses

How is the responsiveness of the admissions office?

No responses

How did you prepare for the interview?

Lots or reading and anticipating questions.

What impressed you positively?

Hospitals are beautiful (especially Hasbro Children's)

What impressed you negatively?

The administrators and the students. The students seemed boring - I mean they were typical med students but not especially interesting or engaging. I was surprised by this since it's an "elite Ivy" school.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

The school is trying to reinvent themselves and having some growing pains. I'm sure it will be a much more mature medical school in five years or so.

What are your general comments?

Well, I enjoyed it and the hospitals are fantastic. But I was surprised at the extent to which they complimented and praised me. I was told things like "I think you'll definitely get in," and "your recommendations are the strongest I've seen." I've been rejected at plenty of schools and this type of language seemed highly inappropriate, especially since it's a committee decision. Don't insult my intelligence...

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
