No responses

How did you prepare for the interview?

SDN, reviewed my AMCAS and secondary, researched the school on it's website, talked to current students.

What impressed you positively?

The small size of the school allows for an incredibly small student-prof ratio, all of the facilities are brand new with this amazing simulation center. Students also get to become really involved with doc's at the hospitals early on. The current students also all seemed so happy to be there!

What impressed you negatively?

Nothing.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

Nothing.

What are your general comments?

Breakfast with students, the interview was earlier in the day which was nice, and then we got a tour of the school, simulation center, and one of the hospitals. We actually got to watch a cardiac catheterization procedure at the hospital!

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
