Do you know anything about osteopathic medicine?
What you did here and there? (going along my application)
Why don't we spea some Spanish if you studied it for 3 semesters?

What was the most interesting question?

OK, now let's speak some Spanish.

What was the most difficult question?

You took Spanish classes in college. Talk Spanish to me. :))) - Btw, I am an ESL student (not Spanish-speaking) but I took 3 levels of Spanish just because I really like it! However, I did not prepare at all and I spoke much worse than I could. The doctor who interviewed me was a very nice person. She was latina and I hope show will be lanient to my Espanol. :) No es muy facil para mi pero yo estudio mucho. :)

How is the responsiveness of the admissions office?

9 out of 10

How did you prepare for the interview?

SDN, my application, practiced with my friend (current NYCOM student).

What impressed you positively?

The technology, location, nice student body. We went to the anatomy lab and I was really impressed by that cadavers' paradise. :) I would not mind to spend my next 2 years in that school.

What impressed you negatively?

The cost. Oh, man, the school is expensive!

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

Nothing really, maybe I would practice some spanish with my latin friends, but I think this never happens... Don't bother, it's very relaxed over there...

What are your general comments?

It is a good school. Very technological (two human-like robots Stan and Peda), lectures streamed online, wireless everywhere, video-recorded simulations with patients... It's pricy and school does not give much of financial aid. Averall, the scool is good!

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?

All fine!
