💬 Interview Process

What is one of the specific questions they asked you?

Why Michigan?

What was the most interesting question?

Tell me something fun about yourself that is not in your application, or teach me something interesting.

How did you prepare for the interview?

Researched the school, reviewed my AMCAS app and secondary.

What was the most difficult question?

Tell me something about yourself that I wouldn't know by reading your application.

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.
