✅ Interview Preparation and Impressions

How is the friendliness of the admissions office?

10 out of 10

How is the responsiveness of the admissions office?

10 out of 10

How did you prepare for the interview?

Researched the school, reviewed my AMCAS app and secondary.

What impressed you positively?

All of the facilities; how nice and happy everyone was; how much the classes seemed to get along.

What impressed you negatively?

Students said average class attendance is 50-60 out of 170. Many students don't even use microscopes because all the slides are available online (that's good from a technology/convenience standpoint, but I don't want my doc not knowing how to use a microscope).

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

How laid back it would be--that they were excited I was able to make it and really just wanted to get to know me.

What are your general comments?

They really stressed that Michigan has to be right for you and you have to be right for Michigan. If that is the case, you should come. If not, do not come. I liked how up front and honest they were throughout the entire interview day.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
