How did you prepare for the interview?

SDN, looked over primary and secondary apps, went over practice questions.

What impressed you positively?

The facilities, computerized tests, anatomy labs and campus. The students and staff were genuinely happy and loved where they were. Both tour guides (hospital and campus tours) were awesome. I thought Omaha was very cute, although I grew up in a small town. :)

What impressed you negatively?

Nothing big, just that the day never seemed to end... bring comfy shoes!

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

If there was anything, I can't remember.

What are your general comments?

First thing in the morning, we were all herded into a conference room and fed, getting a chance to meet our fellow interviewees. Dr. Nipper and others then got a chance to speak about the school and programs available. After that, we were bussed over to the hospital for our interviews. I had both of my interviews in patient rooms, which I thought was pretty cool. My first interviewer asked me most of the ''hard'' questions listed below, and my second interview with an M4 was laid back and just chit-chat. Post interviews, we went downstairs for lunch, had a tour of the hospital, then were bussed back to main campus for a tour. After this tour, there was a reception where we could hang out with current M2's and ask anything we liked. My feet were killing me at the end of the day!
