✅ Interview Preparation and Impressions

How is the friendliness of the admissions office?

No responses

How is the responsiveness of the admissions office?

No responses

How did you prepare for the interview?

Anticipated possible questions and practiced answers with family, reviewed my primary and secondary apps, SDN, light reading (AACOM's book), and school's website.

What impressed you positively?

The people: students, staff, faculty were all exemplary. How much the school has been accepted by the community and its ambitious plans for the future.

What impressed you negatively?

I'm used to larger, more established colleges, so the lack of bookstore, cafeteria, and large library stood out at first. However, the school has everything you need to do well in medical school and will probably continue to grow.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

I think I was well prepared...too much time on SDN :) However, I was surprised by the disparity between the comments about the school's wharehouse-like feel and what I experienced. The facilities are great and have a completely medschool feel.

What are your general comments?

Very enjoyable, instructive, and low-stress. The director of admissions, Roger Corbman is incredible. He truly goes out of his way to make each person feel comfortable and appreciated, and encourages everyone to do what will make them happy-regardless of which school they choose.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
