What are your general comments?
Really chill interview. Everyone makes sure you're relaxed and the interviews are more conversation than Q&A. They will open housing on campus at a market rate for the incoming class. Interview day was from 9:30am-4;30pm so it was pretty long but filled with a good amount of activities and such.
💬 Interview Process
What is one of the specific questions they asked you?
What made you stumble upon Morehouse (out of state)?
What was the most interesting question?
Wasn't a question but discussing research and the pros and cons of medical education.
How did you prepare for the interview?
Reviewed my application, Morehouse website, sdn, prepped from previous interviews
What was the most difficult question?
What is a challenge you would face academically here at Morehouse?
What impressed you positively?
Dedication to the underserved community, match rate, the fact they gave us a tour of Grady hospital, facilities look nice, very friendly, interview was more of a conversation than it was Q&A, close to the city, they gave us water bottles and their food spread was pretty good.
What impressed you negatively?
The fact that exams are graded, with the new pass/fail step 1 grading, my interviewer said it may be tough getting into residencies because Morehouse doesn't have the best name in the eyes of others, some interviewers were given two candidates to interview so they split the time that the candidate would normally have. Library and gym is pretty small but students say they have access to the Morehouse college facility.
What did you wish you had known ahead of time?
That I would have to sign in at the public safety office in the garage before coming to the main building.
