How did you prepare for the interview?

School website, SDN, talked to friends, met with advisors for mock interviews, wikedpedia :)

What impressed you positively?

Everyone was nice and really wanted you to see the School as a Family oriented enviornment.

What impressed you negatively?

The medical student lunch was not well organized. It would have been better if the medical students broke up into small groups to interacted more with persepecitve students.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

Nothing really, but it does help to Memorize the Meharry Medical Mission.

What are your general comments?

The interview experience was good. There were three interviews each 30 mins each. The 30 mins goes by really fast, especially since the interviews are set up to be stress free. I did have one really bad interview with an interviewer who really didn't care about anything positive in my application. I am sure she wanted to test my patience, but I would not go to the interviews not expecting at least one curve ball of a stressful interviewer.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
