✅ 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, school website, looked up general interview questions, read over AMCAS application & school secondary.

What impressed you positively?

How laid back the interview was. Interviewed with one student and one faculty member, and both were extremely conversational and relaxed.

What impressed you negatively?

Very large interview group. Kind of overwhelming. Also, the interviewers were maybe a little too relaxed, not sure they got enough from the interview, and wished interview was a little longer. Almost like they seemed rushed to talk/ask questions.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

No responses

What are your general comments?

Overall very relaxed interviews. Both the faculty member and student were extremely personable, and it wasn't just a Q & A session. I was able to talk a lot about the school and ask a lot of questions at the end of the interview too. I'd say it's hard to judge how I did bc it's so laid back. & it almost gives me a false sense of hope as to what the other interviews will be like.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?

Smaller interview groups. Pretty overwhelming with 25 of us. But overall great experience.
