How is the responsiveness of the admissions office?

No responses

How did you prepare for the interview?

Read SDN forums + interview feedback. Looked over my primary and secondary application.

What impressed you positively?

The basketball courts on campus were in perfect shape. The robotic patients Stan and Ped.

What impressed you negatively?

The campus looked very community college-like. Didn't get a chance to see the lecture halls, which are supposedly very nice. Nerdy looking students?

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

The interview was extremely laid back, and that I didn't have to stress over ethical questions that some other schools ask. The questions are ALL based on your grades/health experiences/personal questions.

What are your general comments?

I was in the afternoon section. My interviewer was having a bad day and didn't want to be interviewing 5 students. In the actual interview she seemed to try to be nice though. The interview started with some specific questions but eventually led to a normal conversation about things besides medicine.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
