✅ 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?

Read over application materials, researched the school through its website, talked to student host

What impressed you positively?

Personalized attention due to small class size, lots of research/elective/dual degree options, lots of use of technology in classes (every student gets an iPad), so many positives to this school

What impressed you negatively?

Lots of lecture/class time - 7 hrs per day in first year is not unusual - and tests every 2 weeks. DHMC is beautiful, but sometimes seems more like a shopping mall than a hospital

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

They are currently going through a major curriculum change which will be implemented for the 2015 entering class

What are your general comments?

DMS is a great school in a wonderful, quiet location. Their students are very friendly and match to top programs in their field. If you enjoy the backwoods location, outdoor/winter activities and the small cohort, it will be a wonderful place to study medicine.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
