✅ Interview Preparation and Impressions

10 out of 10

How is the responsiveness of the admissions office?

10 out of 10

How did you prepare for the interview?

SDN, Mock interview, reading about current topics in medicine

What impressed you positively?

Very professional atmosphere, everyone there seemed like they really wanted to be there. Friendly staff who seemed interested in getting to know me. You get the feeling that everyone here really wants you to succeed. Dr. Moore is a great guy. The new fitness center is amazing. The different pathways you can choose is a bonus

What impressed you negatively?

Small cafeteria. Not all of the facilities are on the campus.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

You can't go in the front doors, park in the back and enter there. I wish I knew they were going to change the interview format. You have to choose your pathway before you attend the PBL session. Apparently the Day's Inn offered a shuttle to and from airport and school. I wouldn't have rented a car if I knew that and could have saved some money.

What are your general comments?

The interview was stress free and actually kind of fun. Everyone at the school was positive and straightforward about the school. The rules (dress code/ no food and drink) create a professional atmosphere that I really liked.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
