💬 Interview Questions

What is one of the specific questions they asked you?

No responses

What was the most interesting question?

Was an interesting interview, pretty relaxed and straight forward. Most people had an interviewer who asked questions verbatim from a sheet of paper. Mine was just a conversation and he didn't fill anything out. Not sure what that means...

What was the most difficult question?

We started talking about rural medicine and the interviewer wanted me to check out his calendar to see if I noticed anything. Really nothing was hard, no ethical/state of medicine questions.

How did you prepare for the interview?

Read over AMCAS and personal statements. Looked up presidential candidates healthcare plans, etc.

What impressed you positively?

Unlike some of the other feedback, the people at NYMC really impressed me. Everyone was incredibly helpful, and the second years seemed really relaxed. Can't speak for the first years, however, since they were taking a test. Also, I like the rural feel of the campus. Lots of open space. Also the facilities were pretty nice. Check out the Children's Hospital if you have the chance its pretty impressive.

What impressed you negatively?

The on-campus housing seemed a bit cramped, yet everyone seemed to make due. Their doesn't seem to be anything near the campus, but White Plains is an 8 minute drive away.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

The prison that is on campus. Its clear on the other side of campus so you'll never see it.
