How did you prepare for the interview?

Watched the news for a week before the interview, studied my notes from my experience with veterinarians, read a book on veterinary medical ethics, looked through information on AVMA website, mock-interviews with faculty at school, family, friends, or whoever would listen, haha.

What impressed you positively?

I really was impressed by facitilites, especially the veterinary teaching hospital. I was also impressed by how nice everyone was that I talked to - my interviewers were very good at making some small talk to start the interview to help me to have less stress.

Report Response | I was asked this too

What impressed you negatively?

Many of the classrooms were in use, and there was a conference going on so I was not able to see a lot of the academic facilities. The day was not really organized - I had my interview in the morning, then it was optional to come for a student-conducted tour at noon

Report Response | I was asked this too

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

Meter-parking only!! Bring lots of quarters! Also, an extra pair of shoes wouldn't hurt for the tour, especially if you interview in the afternoon after the tour - we walked through the large animal facility, which was clean for a barn, but still a barn. :) You don't want to smell like you stepped in something going into your interview, even though it IS a veterinary interview, haha.

Report Response | I was asked this too

What are your general comments?

I felt fairly confident coming out of the interview. My interviewers really made it seem more like a conversation than an interview, so it was much more relaxed than I was expecting. I felt like I was well prepared (probably spent too much time preparing in actuality) and I could answer all of the questions I was asked.
