How is the responsiveness of the admissions office?

No responses

How did you prepare for the interview?

Read my application and the school website.

What impressed you positively?

The facilities and hospitals were fabulous and very up to date. The students were helpful in answering questions and were interested in trying to answer them.

What impressed you negatively?

The interview group was very large (around 50 people), but they managed to organize us well.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

There are 9 regional campuses which they split the first year class up amongst. So not all students will be at the Indianapolis campus.

What are your general comments?

My interview was one of the more intense ones but probably because it was a 4th year medical student. He was nice but he wrote a lot, which was a bit distracting. It was a pretty good interview overall though. He seemed to really want to know WHY I wanted to be a doctor.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
