How is the responsiveness of the admissions office?

7 out of 10

How did you prepare for the interview?

I didn't do any extensive prep. I reviewed my personal statement and AMCAS application.

What impressed you positively?

Hearing about the competency based curriculum and seeing the facilities.

What impressed you negatively?

That where you interviewed and saw might not be where you end up going since there are 8 sites where med students are sent and you won't know where you're going until after you have accepted.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

That no one else was bringing any guests/parents to see tour the school. Also there was a very high number of interviewers interviewing on the same day.

What are your general comments?

My interview overall was pretty laid back. I was surprised that I wasn't really asked to provide any information that was already in my application.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?

No responses
