Practice. Read website/ read student doctor network advice.

What impressed you positively?

The enthusiasm about the medical school and the technology of the medical school once it opens.

What impressed you negatively?

The location was a huge negative. The admissions staff also created a false low stress environment. The stress was actually pretty high. They tricked you into thinking they were laid back, but they were actually fairly picky.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

The location is shocking. Prepare to be floored. Mountains surround you on all sides. It is like a trip back in time and you feel secluded from modernity and reality.

What are your general comments?

The interviewers created a false sense of security. They make you think it is laid back, but actually they are really picky. Be on guard for the interview. Be ready. I do not want to scare you because it is low key, but when it comes to judging you, they are like Simon Cowell on a bad day.
