💬 Interview Questions

What is one of the specific questions they asked you?

What do you think about NPs and PAs increased role in primary care?
What do you think about physician assisted suicide?
Why not just keep doing research if you like it so much?

What was the most interesting question?

One interviewer asked me some questions about my childhood which was a nice way to start the interview. Very casual to start off with.

What was the most difficult question?

The physician assisted suicide question was definitely the hardest. It caught me off guard a little, but the interviewer wasn't confrontational about it. I think they just wanted to see if I had a well rationed reason for my thoughts.

✅ Interview Preparation and Impressions

How is the friendliness of the admissions office?

10 out of 10

How is the responsiveness of the admissions office?

9 out of 10

How did you prepare for the interview?

Read over my application (they draw A LOT on the secondary essays for interview questions), read through SDN's interview feedback and forums, read threads on healthcare topics and whatnot, kept reading interesting books, stuff like that.

What impressed you positively?

They're remodeling the gross anatomy lab just in time for the class entering in 2009. It is going to be very, very swank.

What impressed you negatively?

It's very much a concrete campus and the classrooms aren't really big enough for all the students. There's an overflow classroom that simulcasts the lectures, but you can't really see what the professor is pointing at.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

I wish I had known exactly how much they would draw on my secondary essays. I had read through them, but I hadn't really given them a whole lot of thought since I wrote them.

What are your general comments?

Overall, I'm very excited about this school. It's my top choice because of the great clinical training they give. Plus Louisville is a great city to live in.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
