Both my interviews were fabulous. They spent a great deal of time and energy into getting to know me and understanding my desire to enter the medical profession.
💬 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?
Not really a question, but my second interviewer started off by saying "it appears you get around." He meant study abroad experiences of course.
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.
