Why do you want to go to Wayne State?

What was the most interesting question?

Nothing struck me as unique.

What was the most difficult question?

None really...I always find the typical question: "Why do you want to become a doctor?" to be difficult to answer because it is such a loaded question that you could spend hours answering. But, I think everyone expects that you will have a planned answer for that question.

Read all Student Doctor Network interview feedback submissions for Wayne State. Reviewed my primary and secondary application materials. Kept things in perspective, knowing I should just be myself.

Their facilities are actually quite nice.

The city of Detroit (but I have known for quite some time now that Detroit isn't the exactly greatest city).
