How did you prepare for the interview?

Read sdn, went on the school's website

What impressed you positively?

I liked the diverse student population and the fact that the school is not in the middle of nowhere. The students who lead us on the tour seemed enthusiastic. As we did the tours, students were giving us a thumbs up sign and wishing us good luck.

What impressed you negatively?

The fact that Touro doesn't have alot of rotations set in place yet...yikes. They only have 1 SIMM man and the class you have to take in order to use it costs and extra $500.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

That I was going to be asked specific questions about the history of D.O.s

What are your general comments?

Stay confident during your interview. Some people got to lead the conversation. Others did not. So be prepared for anything

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?

They should allow students to submit secondaries online. You know, to save the trees.
