✅ Interview Preparation and Impressions

3 out of 10

How is the responsiveness of the admissions office?

4 out of 10

How did you prepare for the interview?

SDN, previous interviews, etc. It was really basic--no surprises.

What impressed you positively?

Awesome Sim lab and other facilities.

What impressed you negatively?

Lack of knowledge about my application and who I was; lack of diversity among student population; defensiveness when you ask about problems the school has had being so new; behind schedule on completing the clinic; lack of interest by the D2 student present at the interview. The interview seemed like amateur hour.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

No responses

What are your general comments?

Many of the faculty are really, really old. It seems as maybe they moved to Phoenix to retire and teaching is something they're doing to make an extra buck.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
