✅ 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?

Reviewed AMCAS, SDN, and Morehouse website; mock interviews with classmates

What impressed you positively?

The faculty, staff, and students were some of the most supportive and positive people I've met in the medical admissions process. I also learned that Morehouse had a 100% Step 1 pass rate. The small class size allows for the extra attention struggling students may need in order to succeed.

What impressed you negatively?

The facilities, lack of clinical experience during first two years, overly lax administration, disorganization of the interview day, and the quality of clinical rotations at Grady

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

How bad traffic would be...

What are your general comments?

Please, please, please be familiar with the mission statement. If you don't have any interest in primary or working with underserved populations, reconsider your application.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
