💬 Interview Questions
What was the most interesting question?
You are the only doctor in a small town. You get your wisdom teeth taken out. When walking home from the office, you see a patient of yours crossing the street. They grab their chest and fall down. You turn them over and see they are bleeding from their nose and mouth. You realize it is one of your patients who has AIDS. Do you administer CPR?

What impressed you positively?
The students were amazing! They were so nice and outgoing and friendly. The curriculum is awesome as well. Instead of teaching you by subjects, they teach you by body systems. That way, if you're bad in one subject, you can't fail it becuase you have the other subjects in that section to save you. The facilities are nice.
What impressed you negatively?
It's not in the best part of town. You're driving in the city and all the sudden you hit the school.
What did you wish you had known ahead of time?
Nothing.
What are your general comments?
We got there and met in the student center. We had some a man speak to us who was very very nice. Then the students came and took us across campus to a student panel where we could ask them anything (no other university people were there), then we had a campus tour, lunch, and tour of the apartments across the street. Then we hung out in the student lounge until our interview was over. PS If you are not familiar with Kansas City, stay at a hotel that has the KCI shuttle and shuttle to the school. That way a. you won't be late, and b. it's one less thing you have to worry about.
