How did you prepare for the interview?

Read about the school, SDN feedback, got a good night's sleep

What impressed you positively?

The hospital is really beautiful and the students on clinical rotations seemed really happy. They even have a place for students to sleep at the hospital (though this probably shows how much they are there).

What impressed you negatively?

The facilities are pretty old and run-down. Also, the first year students seem incredibly stressed. Since they have tests every other week, there really is never a break and they said every other weekend is spent in the library.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

No responses

What are your general comments?

Overall, fine. The admissions people are really nice and friendly. The interviews were laid-back and casual. There was one annoying applicant there who kept asking off the wall questions, but that's not the school's fault. Nice place--too rural for me.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?

Everything is on paper which makes things slow! Also, an online status page would be nice!!
