💬 Interview Questions

What is one of the specific questions they asked you?

Do you have any questions or is there anything you'd like me to say to the committee? This is a very important question to prepare for. Asking questions shows you're interested. Also, tell the interviewer to stress to the committee how very interested you are in the school, and tell him/her again why you want to go there. Put more emotion into it this time.
What brought you to medicine? You can tell them what initially sparked your interest and also why you want to be a doctor.
Why did you ask Dr/Professor[insert professor or doctor name] for a recommendation letter? What was your relationship with him/her and what did you learn from him/her?

What are your general comments?

At WSU, just like any other school, how the interview goes not only depends on you, but mostly the interviewer. Some of them will ask dumb questions but others will ask more meaningful questions. Unfortunately, you don't know the name of the interviewer until you get there.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
