✅ Interview Preparation and Impressions

How is the friendliness of the admissions office?

10 out of 10

How is the responsiveness of the admissions office?

10 out of 10

How did you prepare for the interview?

Interview guides, practice questions, got up to snuff on most recent healthcare/ethics topics. Reviewed their website thoroughly.

What impressed you positively?

Very friendly and obviously want to set everyone at ease. The campus is amazing, and the community is incredible. They are so invested in the success of their students.

What impressed you negatively?

Long wait for your interview slot. One of the three interviewers was very unreadable. Didn't expect to feel intimidated at this interview, based on the previous posts, but surprisingly I did feel that a little.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

I really wish this wasn't my first med school interview, since it is my top choice school. I know I'm a good fit, but I'm worried that my nervousness blew it. I also wish I had practiced with a friend, and been more prepared to *thoroughly* describe my appreciation of Osteopathy and OMM.

What are your general comments?

Try to get a few "maybe" school interviews out of the way so that you can give a polished performance at the school of your choice.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
