💬 Interview Process

What is one of the specific questions they asked you?

Tell us about BSE.

What was the most interesting question?

Did the story in your personal statement really happen? (I made my personal statement into more of a narrative with a flowing story-line...and yes, it did happen...we all had a good laugh about it)

How did you prepare for the interview?

Mock pre-interview with my undergrad's pre-health advisor, reading up on JAVMA's website, reading about current events in general, going over basic interview questions for pre-health careers

What was the most difficult question?

What would you tell a client that called you to say that their dog had pinworms?

What impressed you positively?

The facilities, the centralness of the hospital to the lecture halls, the extremly nice interviewers!! (what is it about midwestern people that makes them soooo nice?)

What impressed you negatively?

I wish a student would have given me the tour -- I think this was just because of the timing of it. My interview was pretty late in the year and it would have been nice to perhaps have it a bit earlier.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

They don't feed you!
