✅ Interview Preparation and Impressions

8 out of 10

How is the responsiveness of the admissions office?

9 out of 10

How did you prepare for the interview?

I re-read my applications and resumes, reviewed the SDN interview feedback questions.

What impressed you positively?

The COMLEX and USMLE exam pass rates, the beautiful campus, Phoenix weather, rotation sites, residency match lists.

What impressed you negatively?

The gym was tiny, the tour was given by an admissions person and not a student, the students did not show up to lunch.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

That I would need to more actively find current students to talk to. I maybe talked to two and they were the admissions selected people.

What are your general comments?

It's a very nice campus and seems to have a very strong academic program. I really enjoyed visiting the campus and the area. It was a nice relief from winter and a very sharp contrast to another school I visited where I had to drive through a snow storm to get there.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?

Shorten the day a bit. There was a lot of downtime in between interviews and tours.
