How is the responsiveness of the admissions office?

9 out of 10

How did you prepare for the interview?

Did research online for the MMI. Prepared for the traditional interview by learning as much as I could about the school and reading through my applications.

What impressed you positively?

The school, a clean slate, and it it being built by the right people. They want their students to become great physicians, and they leave little doubt that they will succeed.

What impressed you negatively?

Being a new school, they have a lot of programs packed into the basket for their students. But what looks good on paper, may not succeed when the ball is rolling. Charter classes will be guinea pigs.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

Having done a few interviews, this is becoming old hat by now.
