✅ 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?

Looked over these surveys, prepared answers for basic questions, read over my application materials, researched the school

What impressed you positively?

Everyone was super friendly and seemed to like being there, there is no shortage of research opportunities, you can choose where you want to do each of your clerkships/electives since Case has 4 teaching hospitals all to itself

What impressed you negatively?

Nothing, really - they spent a lot of time defending Cleveland, which is unnecessary in my opinion but other people may feel differently

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

Just relax, they're not out to catch you doing something wrong - be friendly, hang out, find out more about the school

What are your general comments?

Great school, I was excited about this one before I went and going there just confirmed that it is a great place to go, and will provide a top-notch education

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?

None - they are just great
