What impressed you positively?

The practice dummy - the student working on it killed it when our tour group walked in just to show how cool it was...which it is. My interviewer had definitely read over my application and wasn't there to grill me on anything.

Report Response | I was asked this too

What impressed you negatively?

The age of parts of the school, the surrounding area. Some parts of the school definitely show their age, some parts have been recently renovated though. Hearing about the surrounding neighborhood and the presence of security at the entrance to the school was kind of weird.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

No responses

What are your general comments?

There around 20-30 other applicants on interview day. The day started with a tour of the school/facilities and hospital given by a med student. We then had lunch with the med students with a talk given by the dean. The dean seemed really nice and genuinely interested in our success. We then returned to a conference room for a financial aid talk and then waited for our interviewers to get us. Overall, the day was less stressful than I thought it was going to be. The interview was very conversational about my application and allowed me to tell my story/insight into medicine.
