Interview feedback on SDN, practiced, re-read essays

What was the most difficult question?

What is the biggest problem in healthcare today and how would you deal with it? Also: How would you deal with problems of allocation of treatment, tests, transplant organs, etc.? These were kind of rolled into one question, which sucked.

What impressed you positively?

Facilities are very nice, student body is extremely friendly, we talked to a TON of students. I also liked that there were a lot of HPSP students there since I am considering that path. The different tracks (military, international, etc.) sound great too.

No cafeteria food, no athletic center.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?

Nothing, they set up a great interview day. My only suggestion would be to have less interviewees in a group (there were 4 per set of interviewers, which meant the third and fourth person to interview in each group had to wait around for a while and just get more and more nervous.)
