How did you prepare for the interview?

Read the SDN interview feedback - I was asked all the same questions that have been previously posted for this year's interviews

What impressed you positively?

How honest and enthusatic everyone I talked to was. Everyone seemed genuniely happy and satisfied with USF and the facilities, faculty, and curriculum.

What impressed you negatively?

The commuting required, but it's also a positive since you have so many hospitals and clinics to obtain clinical experiences at, and a huge diversity of patients

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

I wished that I had taken everyone else seriously who said wear comfortable shoes - my interview day went to Tampa General Hospital and we walked around for nearly 3 hours straight. WEAR COMFORTABLE SHOES!!!

What are your general comments?

Overall it was very low stress and informative. Make sure to eat something in the morning - we walked a lot and didn't get to lunch until after 1pm. Also, and I cannot stress this enough, WEAR COMFORTABLE SHOES and do not be hesitant about asking questions.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
