Why Meharry?

What was the most interesting question?

Nothing was really out of the ordinary - they just assked the normal stuff. About research, volunteering, shadowing, other hobbies. The interview was more just a conversation - they weren't grilling me with questions and stuff.

What was the most difficult question?

none - the interviewers were both really laid back and friendly. They really put their applicants at ease, and are welcoming.

How did you prepare for the interview?

What impressed you positively?

The family like atmosphere. Everyone at the school seems to know each other (students, faculty, and staff), and they all seem really helpful.

What impressed you negatively?

They start school in July. The only potential downside to this is being waitlisted at other schools, sometimes until early August.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

Lunch with the Med students really is an interview too. They took notes on us. It was a little weird, not gonna lie.

What are your general comments?

This isn't about the school, but there's no place for comments in travel. I took the metro bus to and from the interview, and it was really nice. I would definitely reccommend it. For a day pass, it's only $4.80, and you can easily figure out which busses to take by going to www.nashvillemta.org.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
