Report Response | I was asked this too

What was the most interesting question?

The ethics in medicine question turned out to be interesting because after I gave me answer, I was asked how I would approach a patient regarding the subject and then one of my interviewers pretended to be a patient and we did a little back-and-forth role play. Very laid back and fun though, not nerve-wracking!

Report Response | I was asked this too

What was the most difficult question?

I guess the back and forth made me a bit nervous, but really, nothing was difficult. They really do want to get to know you. They're not out to trick you or stump you with unusually tough questions. I thought my interviewers were great! They put me at ease right off the bat!

Read over my application material

Report Response | I was asked this too

What impressed you positively?

Everything! I love their curriculum and I love that they're honest with you about the pros and cons of the school. I didn't get the feeling they were trying to "sell" me on the school, but rather that they were telling me how it was.

Report Response | I was asked this too

What impressed you negatively?

About the school, nothing. As far as other stuff goes, it's my own fault I'm disappointed about this, but I didn't like Century Towers. I was really looking forward to the CT tour because I thought it sounded great from everything I read, but it turned out not to be what I was expecting.

Report Response | I was asked this too

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

I wish I hadn't been worried about the neighborhood. It turned out not to be as bad as I was picturing. No, there weren't roses and butterflies on the street corners and halo-wearing angels ready to help you cross the street, but it really wasn't that bad. It's a big city and big cities aren't all roses and butterflies. Some of the things I had read online made it sound like there were armed gangs at every turn, ready to take you out. It's really not that bad at all.
