How did you prepare for the interview?

Read sdn interview feedback like this :)

What impressed you positively?

Everyone was very welcoming, relaxed, and personable. Facilities are very new. Someone allowed our tour to see the fancy simulation room with the DaVinci simulator (which even med students can't use, lol)

What impressed you negatively?

No responses

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

The group discussion session was me+3 other interviewees+faculty member discussing an example scenario with ethical dilemmas. There was some "down time" between group discussion and individual interview which could pretty much only be used by talking with the other interviewees who were not in a session or whoever from admissions were there.

What are your general comments?

Individual interview was mostly open file except they did not have access to scores/grades. Like others said, lots of opportunities to ask questions and prepare something to teach them about ;) while I wasn't asked this question, half of the other interviewees were.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?

Nothing- it was a very relaxed interview day and I would even describe it as fun!
