💬 Interview Questions

What is one of the specific questions they asked you?

Ethical abortion question stated above. (I later discovered that there really is no right answer to this question. The adcom wants to see how you handle yourself given this type of question. The really want to see that you are a compassionate individual and are able to give credance to both sides of the questions.
Tell us about yourself. I later poked fun at myself on how much I had practiced for the interview and responses that other people would tell me to say. The director of admissions later remembered me on how personable I was at the interview. Just remember that you are being interviewed because they feel that your stats are good enough. They also want to make sure that your personality is on par as well.
Why do you want to be an osteopathic physician?

What was the most interesting question?

Tell us about yourself. We want to get to know you. ( this question seems simple but it can really be challenging if you answer too promptly. the adcom really just wants to see your human side such as hobbies and such).

What was the most difficult question?

Ethical question-2 parts; If a pregnant minor came to you and wanted an obortion w/o partents consent would you do it? If you did it and she later committed suicide due to regret what would you tell the parents?
