✅ Interview Preparation and Impressions

10 out of 10

How is the responsiveness of the admissions office?

5 out of 10

How did you prepare for the interview?

SDN, read over amcas + secondary

What impressed you positively?

The facilities are very nice, especially the individual student labs

What impressed you negatively?

Very little diversity, or attention given to the issue (Ie, 2007 class w/ zero black students, 2006 class w/ zero Hispanic students) No office of cultural diversity or individual in charge of minority recruitment. Every other school I have interviewed at has at least made an effort in this regard.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

Mizzou considers significant patient experience to be a MUST, I lacked this to some degree. One of my interviewers was very judgmental about this during my interview, and was constantly coming back to the topic of patient experience.

What are your general comments?

Overall, I am a little indifferent about the whole experience. On one hand, this is my undergrad school + home state, but I did not feel like anyone was really trying to convince me to go there. Also, as a minority the issue of diversity is important to me, and I feel they lack effort in this regard (ie see 2007 class profile). I will see where else I get into and re-evaluate the school.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
