💬 Interview Process

What is one of the specific questions they asked you?

Why do you want to be a doctor and why do you want to go to U of Maryland?

What was the most interesting question?

Not really a question, but my second interviewer started off by saying "it appears you get around." He meant study abroad experiences of course.

How did you prepare for the interview?

Looked at this site mostly and kept up on my medical issues reading.

What was the most difficult question?

Was there ever a time when you did something inappropriate or treated someone badly and had to face the consequences of that action?

What impressed you positively?

Much of the hospital, library, research labs, even some of the classrooms are quite new and stunning. Also, U of Maryland is a very accessible and friendly campus.

What impressed you negatively?

The lecture halls are a bit old, but there is word that they are being refurbished this year. Also, it is perhaps a bit pricy for out of state.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

Bring plenty of cash for parking and the meal is pretty small so bring a snack too.
