✅ Interview Preparation and Impressions

How is the friendliness of the admissions office?

No responses

How is the responsiveness of the admissions office?

No responses

How did you prepare for the interview?

StudentDoctor.net, browsing over the schools webpage (some parts were not working), looking up my interviewer

What impressed you positively?

how nice the students were, very willing to honestly answer all questions (one of the tour guides had scored the nations highest USMLE score), the new research building which will be completed and opened in August of 07

What impressed you negatively?

narrow winding hallways were kind of daunting to get around in and the lab area seemed a little run down, older

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

the school is a jesuit university BUT that does not factor into the curriculum and is hardly noticeable though it is mentioned several times and also that i would have almost 2 hrs between the end of my interview and the beginning of the tour

What are your general comments?

Overall the interview was pretty good. I had a good feeling from the interviewer who seemed genuinely interested in what i had to say. Didnt really flow as a conversation though because she was required to complete a questionnaire and kind of read the questions off of that and seemed more intent on getting to everything than really getting to know me.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
