How did you prepare for the interview?

Read up my application and ps thoroughly. I looked at SDN, interview feedback page. I did a few mocks with friends.

What impressed you positively?

The DMC, is large, and very accessible to the medical school, everything is connected, which is convenient. The staff and students were friendly, informative and approachable.

What impressed you negatively?

Although they do give an informative book, I would have liked to have a presentation on the school.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

Nothing really.

What are your general comments?

Interview was good, however at times I felt that the interviewer didn't probe enough and did not seem to interested in me expanding on certain answers. I found it difficult to describe myself in greater depth than I had in me application. The school seems great, especially if your a commuter student. The large size has its pros and cons.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?

A presentation on WUSOM would be helpful, everything else was great.
