No responses

How did you prepare for the interview?

besides briefly review SDN, nothing. It was my 6th interview. And I've never reviewed my application before an interview because unless you lied, you should know of what your application consists, in detail.

What impressed you positively?

Yes, its a warehouse, but it has walls and even lecture halls. The anatomy lab is spacious and new. The school gets 40 cadavers and there are no more than 4 people to a body. People are friendly and profs have open door policy.

What impressed you negatively?

The whole day was kind of blah. I asked two people about international rotations as electives and pretty much got lectured because its a liability issue for the school. This is stupid because every other school at which I have interviewed is very receptive to people going abroad.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

eh

What are your general comments?

I was impressed by it because of the negative reviews on SDN about it being just a warehouse and all, but overall this school would only act as a back up school. I was accepted to Touro NY the day before the interview so I had to evaluate Touro NV as compared to NY. It didnt even compare.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
