How did you prepare for the interview?

I studied my own application and tried to figure out what I had learned from each of my experiences.

What impressed you positively?

The health sciences building, the changing curriculum.

What impressed you negatively?

Rising tuition, almost all of the learning is done through a lecture setting as opposed to small group work or problem based learning.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

I wish I would have known a little bit more about general problems that are happening in health care.

What are your general comments?

I was interviewed by a 4th year student and a professor. The student seemed to be much more interested in the interview but both were pretty laid back and interesting.
