How did you prepare for the interview?

Read SDN, talked to current U of M students.

What impressed you positively?

The hospital and medical facilities are huge and really great. Also, the medical school is pretty technologically advanced--they have all the slides on the internet and have really cool interactive learning programs on the internet. Also, the people were friendly.

What impressed you negatively?

Nothing, really.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

That I should have prepared a little bit more, perhaps by practicing questions.

What are your general comments?

It was a little bit more stressful than I had anticipated because it was not as conversational as other interviews I had gone on. The interviewers fired questions at me and it was more businesslike than I had expected.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
