How did you prepare for the interview?

I read SDN and talked with a friend who had recently interviewed at MSU.

What impressed you positively?

The medical students were warm and friendly and were very enthusiastic about their school. The student lounge in the radiology building was quite nice. The faculty seemed very committed to medical student education.

What impressed you negatively?

I didn't realize that the neighboring D.O. school was so large and that the anatomy lab/lecture hall was shared.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

No responses

What are your general comments?

Overall, my interview experience was laid-back and pleasant. I think MSU's M.D. school is overshadowed by its neighboring D.O. school and U of M in Ann Arbor. I love the holistic mission of this school and find its PBL curriculum to be ideal for me as I enjoy small group learning.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
