✅ Interview Preparation and Impressions

How is the friendliness of the admissions office?

10 out of 10

How is the responsiveness of the admissions office?

8 out of 10

How did you prepare for the interview?

SDN, secondary, AMCAS, and practiced with some generic interview concepts (health policy, current affairs, etc.).

What impressed you positively?

The size of Jackson Memorial Hospital, the opportunity to work with Latinos, the classes seem cohesive, and most importantly, the location.

What impressed you negatively?

The students seem to like to party. That's a good thing in some respects, but it just came across to me as a bit overkill.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

My interview was very "what if" oriented. Basically, every question was hypothetical. But, that's not to say that my interviewer was mean/rude/etc. He was very soft spoken and respectful, but it seemed like he had to ask the questions he did.

What are your general comments?

Overall, I like the school.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
