How did you prepare for the interview?

Looked over SDN and old interview feedback

What impressed you positively?

As everyone says, the students REALLY sell this school. All of them love it, and they are all a welcome change from the typical med student (they are social, outgoing, easy to talk to).

What impressed you negatively?

they give you a Q and A session at the beginning of the day. Apparently they try to give you two students with different views on the school, but the two mostly argued for the duration of the session.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

MSNBC is the ultimate propaganda. The city is perfectly functional, not deserted.

What are your general comments?

Tulane really took me by surprise. I almost didn't come to my interview because my car broke down on the drive to New Orleans, but am now very happy I did. Father Don was a great interviewer, and made me want to attend the school. I really feel like Tulane is very much
