What are your general comments?
The brand new small animal hospital is going to be amazing! The large animal hospital is already amazing! The interview went just fine. The professors that interviewed me were a tad dry and hard to read but I didn't let it bother me and the interview went great! I got my acceptance e-mail ten days later :) .
💬 Interview Process
What was the most interesting question?
We often use live animals in labs, including terminal labs in which the animals are put under anesthesia so surgeries can be practiced and later euthanized. How do you feel about this?
How did you prepare for the interview?
I researched the questions and went over them with my adviser. I also read the interview feedback here and I studied, studied, studied!
What was the most difficult question?
What are the biggest problems facing veterinary medicine?
What impressed you positively?
I arrived four hours early to hear the financial class and was immediately taken back to interview WAY early! Kaye was very sweet and funny and told me to "take a deep breath". Taking me back early meant I was more prepared and had less time to be nervous and sit on my ideas for too long!
What impressed you negatively?
The student giving the tour was a little dry. The interviewers were difficult to read and were also a little dry.
What did you wish you had known ahead of time?
Auburn has a professional dress code for students.
