How is the responsiveness of the admissions office?

10 out of 10

How did you prepare for the interview?

Practice interviews, reading SDN, researching health reform, ethical issues, etc.

What impressed you positively?

The simulation lab was really neat.

What impressed you negatively?

The large class size (230) and the fact that you might not be able to stay in KC for years 3 and 4 (although they said about 90% of people get their first choice clinical spot).

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

You may have to wait up to 2 hours before you are called in for an interview. You have the opportunity to ask students questions during this time, and I wish I had come with more questions for them. As soon as your interview is done, you can leave.

What are your general comments?

The day was really fun, and the interview was really stress free.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
