How did you prepare for the interview?

read over my primary and secondary app, SDN, school website, good night sleep!

What impressed you positively?

the students were very down-to-earth. they don't let medical school consume their lives, they still go out, have fun, relax

What impressed you negatively?

not affiliated with a hospital, location is very suburban- you really would have to have a car

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

read up on the VA, also you do a lot of waiting around

What are your general comments?

overall, positive. my first interviewer was a stoic old surgeon and not a good conversationalist. the second was really cool- we talked about sweater-vests. everyone is really enthusaistic about the school, but the setting is far from urban
