How is the responsiveness of the admissions office?

5 out of 10

How did you prepare for the interview?

Wow... I read as much information about the school that I could. I definitely tried to mention details about the school that were unique (that other interviewees might not mention). I printed out pages of questions on Word and practiced answering them all week. I studied my resume, applications (TMDSAS and Secondary), and read up on the socialization of healthcare, abortion debates, and euthanasia debates. I talked with my friends in med school and spoke with a resident about how to carry myself and how to let my personality shine through without losing a serious mentality during the interview. Also, I bought a suit &amp; low heel shoes!!!

What impressed you positively?

The facilities are top notch. The Simulation Center is ahh-mazing.

What impressed you negatively?

Temple doesn't seem to offer a lot--however, it was too foggy for me to get a clear picture of the town/city area.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

hmm.... I kinda felt prepared for everything.

What are your general comments?

I liked this school. I just want to go to medical school please!!

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
