How did you prepare for the interview?

Read Complications by Atul Gawande, D.O. Osteopathy in America, The Difference a D.O. Makes, watched Fox News, CNN, the Today Show that morning, read U.S.A. today, studentdoctor.net interview questions at this school and prepared answers for those questions.

What impressed you positively?

A lot of students from every med school year (1st, 2nd, 3 years to residents) between classes would come to our room where we waited to meet and talk to the interviewees. They encouraged us, talked to us about their classes, and told us about what we need to expect in every year up til our residency. Also, the students cared about each other in their classes. They would share notes and study guides and acted genuinely concerned about the progress of their classmates.

What impressed you negatively?

Nothing. The school was a home.

That the interviewers weren't going to make me cry, instead they would be supportive and caring.
