How did you prepare for the interview?

Review Amcas file, quizzed by parent.

What impressed you positively?

Location, they fed us breakfast, other applicants. The tour guide seemed very proud of his school, he was enthusiastic.

What impressed you negatively?

One interviewer thought he was all that and let me know it by the looks he gave me. Finanical Aid lady was unprofessional, we didn't get to look at lecture halls.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

I wish I wouldn've kept my cool more. I wish I wouldn't have been so annoyed with one interviewer. He was so jerky and I might have let it show for a second or two. Tried to recover quickly when he laughed out loud at me and sneared at a few of the questions I had for him.

What are your general comments?

Students seemed to like each other, but said some equipment was outdated. They weren't entirely enthusiastic, maybe they were tired of studying. . .

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?

There was some woman in the Financial Aid Office who spoke to us about "how hard" medical school was
