💬 Interview Process
What was the most interesting question?
What do you do for fun? There were no real questions in the two interviews. Mainly just a conversation that covered main parts of my file.
How did you prepare for the interview?
Read Penn State's website, reviewed my own materials, talked with a high-school friend who is currently a third year student.
What impressed you positively?
Came into the interview thinking the Hershey Medical Center was going to be some podunk establishment and was very pleasantly surprised. Facilities were not new but definitely not run-down. Faculty was amazingly friendly (almost to the point of making one paranoid). Plus, Hershey is a very safe town, a marked contrast from some of the other schools I visited.
What impressed you negatively?
The rural environment. Not nearly as country as I expected, but I do like the big cities.
