✅ Interview Preparation and Impressions

How is the friendliness of the admissions office?

10 out of 10

How is the responsiveness of the admissions office?

10 out of 10

How did you prepare for the interview?

AMCAS app.

What impressed you positively?

The size of the anatomy lab

What impressed you negatively?

The main auditorium used for TUSM lectures was inclined nearly vertically; who would want to sit/learn in there?

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

There were 30ish people being interviewed the same day.

What are your general comments?

The tour was poor. It was led by 4th-year students who didn't know much, nor did they show us around much. I saw the anatomy lab, the main lecture hall, and a cafe-type lounge. I wanted to see more but I kept my mouth shut. It was positive having had the tour after the interviews; everyone was more relaxed and the questions were genuine, not competitive.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?

There was a brief presentation by a TUSM professor. It was mediocre. Should i expect mediocrity?
