How did you prepare for the interview?

SDN

What impressed you positively?

The people were super nice. The school is very clean. The library is quite impressive.

What impressed you negatively?

The anatomy lab has 4-5 students per cadaver. The rotation options are very limited. Eight inches of snow dropped on the town the night before my interview.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

They do an article review as part of the interview. Be sure and read it well.

What are your general comments?

The faculty of LECOM was great. They were friendly from the get-go, and Dr. Wise made the experience comfortable and enjoyable. Lunch was nothing special, but probably what you'd be eating for the next two years. Plus the students who ate lunch with us answered a lot of questions we wouldn't have asked the staff. The tour after lunch was informative, but not very enthusiastic. All-in-all, it was a good day. Out before 2pm.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
