💬 Interview Process
What is one of the specific questions they asked you?
An M2: What did you do at the free clinic? Did you discover anything interesting from your research? What do you do for fun? You're OOS...why Michigan? Why surgery? Do you have any questions for me?
How did you prepare for the interview?
Read my application, Michigan's website, interview feedback page.
What was the most difficult question?
Do you have any questions for me? (For the 3rd time) I didn't have any more questions at that point, so I just re-capped the qualities about Michigan that I liked, and the things I learned from the questions I asked my 1st two interviewers.
What impressed you positively?
Friendliness of admissions staff and students. Flexibility of curriculum. Research opportunities available. Breakfast & lunch. Facilities. Online pathology/histology. Recorded lectures.
What impressed you negatively?
The weekly flextime quizzes have to be taken at a computer on campus. The large class size: anatomy groups are split up so you only do 50% of the dissections.
What did you wish you had known ahead of time?
My comfortable walking shoes were not comfortable enough.
