What impressed you positively?
The admission staff was super friendly. After the interview they had an orientation session in a conference room, and there were admisssions officers chatting with the other interviewees. Also, the interview was held in the department office of the doctor who was interviewing me. The other doctors there seemed to be having a good time and were joking around a lot.
What impressed you negatively?
It was right in the middle of the holidays, so there weren't any students around to talk to. But that's really more my fault for scheduling the inteview on that day.
What did you wish you had known ahead of time?
That all the students were on break.
What are your general comments?
Robert Wood is a fantastic place. I was so impressed with the facilities. They all look like they've been built within the last 5 or 10 years. All the doctors I saw and spoke with were really positive and good natured. The Admissions staff was also very friendly and answered all my questions. The inteviewer was totally laid back and prefaced the inteview by saying that he didn't ask specific ethical questions cause he thought they were unfair. He was also very up front on the admissions process and how it worked. Totally relaxed atmosphere, but that was partially cause I had gotten accepted to my first school the day before, so I knew I was at least going somewhere. But, seriously, RWJMS is a fantastic place and I would definitely go there if accepted.
