No responses

How is the responsiveness of the admissions office?

No responses

How did you prepare for the interview?

Nothing, really. Read over SDN and did a little research on HMOs (only one site though).

Report Response | I was asked this too

What impressed you positively?

The facilities were beautiful because they are brand new. You also get a laptop and pda (well, technically you're probably paying for it through tuition). Lunch was really good.

Report Response | I was asked this too

What impressed you negatively?

Nothing much; the second years were having a test so they weren't able to do the tour. It was a little chaotic because they were trying to find someone else to do it (they settled on first years who were nice).

Report Response | I was asked this too

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

Nothing

Report Response | I was asked this too

What are your general comments?

It was pretty laid back. The interviewers asked me a lot of ethical questions, some of which I wasn't really prepared to answer. I wouldn't go so far as to say it felt like a conversation, probably because there were so many tough questions.
