How did you prepare for the interview?

Mock interviews (undergrad)

What impressed you positively?

Excellent board scores, students were honest about how hard the program is, clinics were nice.

What impressed you negatively?

Some students seemed unhappy because the program is so difficult and because of all of the specifically medical information the have to learn.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

I had heard from others that the interview process at UConn was terrible, so I was very nervous. The interview itself wasnt bad at all, so my nervousness was for naught. I don't know though...some other interviewers may be tougher judging by what friends have said.
