How did you prepare for the interview?

I looked at SDN interview feedback and did a mock interview at my school's career center

What impressed you positively?

the location was amazing as is the clinical experience. From what I heard from the current students, clinical experience starts from the 2nd week of class with a preceptor. Also you rotate through Jackson Memorial which is a level 1 trauma center.

What impressed you negatively?

I am a little uncertain as to how much the school helps students prepare for the USMLE and applying to MD residencies.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

Nothing
