How did you prepare for the interview?

SDN, read my AMCAS app., talked to students at or who went to Baylor

What impressed you positively?

My interviewers, both were great. The students seemed happy and enthusiastic. Food was awesome and abundant. TMC is really impressive.

What impressed you negatively?

Students seemed a little selfish, ie focused on their careers more than patients. All I met were ivy league-ish (just homogenous that way)

You can do more than one track (like, international health and medical ethics); Baylor will find a way to let you pursue anything you wan; that it would be 85 degrees on Nov. 17

Lunch (mmm was good) at noon, introductions/icebreaker and short intro speech, interviews and basic science tours, more presentations, tours of the hospitals, dinner and more presentations
