How did you prepare for the interview?

SDN. Various med school interview guides.

What impressed you positively?

Several of the med school buildings are REALLY nice. The hospital is average. There is quite a bit of interaction with the faculty and clinicians. Most of the people are laid back, easy to talk to, and professional. The curriculum is systems-based, which I like.

What impressed you negatively?

They started the interview day 30-40 minutes late ... that created a negative impression.
