💬 Interview Process
What is one of the specific questions they asked you?
Besides the fact that your parents are both doctors, why do you want to be a doctor?
What was the most interesting question?
When you volunteer with very sick patients, how do you handle seeing patients who are in pain and you are unable to do anything?
How did you prepare for the interview?
Read the school's website. Hadn't heard of the SDN feedback site at this point.
What impressed you positively?
The faculty seems to really care a lot about the happiness and well-being of their students. The students seemed to be happy and relatively laid back.
What impressed you negatively?
Not a whole lot impressed me negatively. The location is a bit far from Manhattan but it's not that bad...probably like 35 minutes out of parts you'd want to go to. It's med school, so I imagine the only trips I'll take anyway are to the library!
What did you wish you had known ahead of time?
They warn you about this, but be prepared to possibly have to take a shuttle to your interview.
