How is the responsiveness of the admissions office?

10 out of 10

How did you prepare for the interview?

SDN, AMCAS, Secondary

What impressed you positively?

I was impressed by the amount of experience that the MSM students get in their 3rd and 4th year. The way the students work together to help each other get through. If they start together they want to finish together.

What impressed you negatively?

I was surprised that the students talked down about Grady. I thought working at Grady was going to be a good thing, however, the MSM students talked about it as if it was a bad thing. I was not anticipating that.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

That the students giving the tour have a vote or some type of influence on who gets accepted. The admissions committee votes the Monday after your Friday interview. I was very excited to hear this at least they will not forget us over the Christmas holiday.

What are your general comments?

This is a great school looking for a very specific type of student. It does not really help to talk GPA or MCAT scores it is more about what experiences you have and what you wrote about in your secondary essay. This is not a safety school, unless you believe in the mission statement and they do what they can to figure that out.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
