How did you prepare for the interview?

Re-read application, SDN, arrived 2 days early to explore city with rental car

What impressed you positively?

Everything! The school's location (right in the middle of the city), facilities (top notch trauma center, 3rd largest teaching hospital, etc.), and the fact that several different clinical affiliates are conveniently located right on campus. There seem to be many opportunities for students to get involved with volunteering and social activities. I had also never been to Miami, and the city itself was much nicer and more interesting than I had expected.

What impressed you negatively?
