💬 Interview Questions

What is one of the specific questions they asked you?

''What else...?'' This was a damn confusing question because it feels like the interviewer wants you to say something that you haven't said yet. I'd suggest saying ''No'' unless you really have someting substantive to add.

✅ Interview Preparation and Impressions

How is the friendliness of the admissions office?

No responses

How is the responsiveness of the admissions office?

No responses

How did you prepare for the interview?

Reread AMCAS, thought about some common questions (ie, why do you want to be a doctor, where do you see yourself in 10 years, etc)

What impressed you positively?

Fitzimmons will be a huge step forward for the SOM and for the University as a whole - it's slated to open in fall 2007

What impressed you negatively?

The current facilities are shabby, but it's sort of a moot point because by the time the current interviewees show up for school, they'll have at worst 3 or 4 months at the current campus.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

Nothing much really - I guess I wish I had known more about the move out to Fitz, but they fill you in pretty well

What are your general comments?

Interviewing at CU was pretty stress free. I think that the 1st of the 2 interviews everyone has is generally more of an interview and the 2nd is more of a friendly chat.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?

No responses
