How did you prepare for the interview?
I read this website, other random websites, and NEOUCOM's website. I read over my application essays. I talked to people who know me about potential questions/answers.
What impressed you positively?
The school is solely a medical school. There are no other graduate programs, meaning all the teachers, money, and resources go directly to the medical students. Also, the students were exceptionally friendly. Several people approached me to ask whether I needed any help or if I had any questions. Everyone appeared genuinely happy.
What impressed you negatively?
The school is very close to my hometown. It is in the middle of nowhere.
What did you wish you had known ahead of time?
Nothing in particular.

I walked into the interview with very low expectations, and I left the interview pretty impressed with the school. While it is still not my top choice, I believe I would get a personal education and enjoy my time at NEOUCOM.
