If I didn't already feel comfortable in the school and know all about it, I probably would have had a stressful day. The first part with the presentation about the school was excellent (much better than other schools' presentations have been), but it went over time a bit. Then I had to go with 2 other interviewees down to Hahnemann Hospital for my interview (actually, I interviewed in the building I work in every day!). Becuase we had to take the shuttle, we missed the whole tour. Then the shuttle just didn't show up, though (I ride the shuttle twice a day and this is the first time it hasn't shown up), so we were late. I had to wait for another girl to have her interview before me, and then my interview ran a little late, and so I had to take a later shuttle back to the med school campus. It wasn't a big deal, but it delayed my lunch and student interview. The faculty interview was fine, a typical interview but not stressful. The student interview was very short (perhaps because it was late), but casual and fine. I was offered a tour after that, since I had missed the real tour, but I know the school so I just went home. Overall I left with a very positive impression of the school from the presentation and also just from what I already know. (Faculty interview is open file, student interview is closed.)

What was your most challenging course in college? (faculty interview)

What was your most challenging course in college? (interesting because that depends on how you define "challenging")

I didn't. I prepared for my first, looked stuff over for my second, and by now I'm just showing up. I feel like there's no reason to prepare. Reading the feedback here is good, though.

What worries you about med school?

The presentation about the school was excellent. Drexel has an awesome curriculum and nice facilities. They are building a new place with more facilities, too. I already knew about the school, but the presentation was still nice. They have a bunch of clinical sites available.

I didn't like that the student interview was during lunch. I felt like I couldn't eat because I had to talk, and it was very awkward.
