How did you prepare for the interview?
I looked at questions from this website, studied current health issues/news, did a mock interview.
What impressed you positively?
The new hospital was very nice. I also liked their anatomy lab and their library. Students were very nice and the staff was very helpful and answered all my questions. Interviews were much easier than I expected, they just want to get to know you, not very many surprising questions, the doctor that interviewed me what very encouraging and it was nice to be interviewed by a medical student.
I also like how the curriculum is organized into blocks instead of having separate courses. Makes much more sense.
What impressed you negatively?
Some students didn't seem to like living in Baltimore city.
What did you wish you had known ahead of time?
Bring a bottle of water with you. I was very thirsty at the end of the day. Lunch was not very filling so make sure you have a good breakfeast.
What are your general comments?
There was a presentation by the financial aid office on the morning, and then the associate dean for admissions talked to us for a while (he was very encouraging). After the presentations, we had lunch with the medical students and then a medical student gave us a tour of the university. Great tour; got a feel of the university and what it would be like to study there. After the tour I had my first interview for 30 min and my second interview for another 30min and that's it.
