💬 Interview Process

What was the most interesting question?

This was an interesting interview. I led things, talking about what I was interested in, and my interviewer followed up with facts and advice. No real questions in the traditional sense. Very conversational.

How did you prepare for the interview?

Read SDN. Read UMiami's website. Looked over my AMCAS, secondary, and notes on my research.

What impressed you positively?

Everything. Miami is incredible, many students live on South Beach and drive to class. Jackson Memorial Hospital is huge and there are incredible chances to have responsibility as a medical school student. The administration was outstanding, and my interviewer was one of the nicest people I have ever met. The students are all very down to earth.

Do NOT stay at the Days Inn. Seriously. I am not kidding. Cockroaches. No hot water. Wake up call 15 minutes late. I could go on.

That housing costs are actually somewhat reasonable (relative to other big cities).
