How did you prepare for the interview?

Read SDN, skimmed school website/recent Morehouse news. RELAXED

What impressed you positively?

I really like the small class size (no more than 55). They really promote the family feel and sitting in an MS2 patho class, I felt it was genuine even with the faculty.

What impressed you negatively?

nothing really.. it was really cold (19F with wind chill) which is unusual weather for us Georgians..

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

The MS2s who give the tour actually have some say in presenting to the ADCOM. They also mark/take notes on the group as a whole. Dr. Roaf, while an extremely nice guy, does not vote on your file but is present when they vote. Remember Morehouse is looking for empathetic individuals who will serve in underserved areas and fit this small class of select individuals. This was a really chill interview.

What are your general comments?

First, you sign in at the Admissions office (security lets you in) Medical Sciences bldg. Then you might get an oppurtunity to sit in on an MS1/2 class for bit before interviews. You meet and talk with Dr. Roaf for a bit and are assigned a interviewer and given some info. If you are morning session, you interview first. Then you come back for a slideshow and lunch. Then you tour the school with 2 MS2s (who are evaluating you, kinda). After that, you are free to leave. Afternoon interviewees will have their interviews after the tour. Wear comfortable shoes for the tour.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
