How did you prepare for the interview?

I had three previous interviews.

What impressed you positively?

1) Free MCW sticky note pad 2) Free MCW pen 3) FREE MCW 1GB THUMB DRIVE!!! SQUEEE!!!

What impressed you negatively?

Nothing. Everyone at MCW and in Milwaukee in general was very friendly.

No responses

What are your general comments?

I was accepted off the alternate list. I had an advantage being that this was a late interview and I had the previous experience of 3 other interviews plus additional volunteer experience since the other interviews that turned out to be extremely rewarding. My advice is to keep trying and to show that you are motivated to be superior physician and to be able to discuss the experiences that have shaped your career outlook. It also helps to chill out...you've got nothing to lose.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
