How did you prepare for the interview?

I forgot I had an interview until the day before when someone reminded me...I thought I had an extra week left to review the material. So to answer this question, I did not prepare for this interview.

What impressed you positively?

All my friends who got into TCOM last year were there.

Report Response | I was asked this too

What impressed you negatively?

There's nothing really special about the school except for the plasma screens they have in the anatomy lab. I am not impressed with the $150K of debt a typical TCOM student has after four years. I thought it would be cheaper if you stay in state. I guess not.

Report Response | I was asked this too

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

The amount of debt.

What are your general comments?

I had both of my interviews in the morning so I was basically done before 9:15, which is a good thing. I went on the school tour and had lunch with some of the second years. They were very nice. Everything they said seemed scripted, but it's ok. They can't really talk bad about the school. Then after lunch, the second year students took us to the anatomy lab where we saw two cadavers and an inguinal hernia. Then we went to visit the first year students who were having their orientation. After that, we met Stan and Norm, the school's infamous mannequins. I was done by 1 pm. Overall, it's a wonderful school, but I don't think it's worth $150K for four years.
