What are your general comments?

Both interviwers I had were very nice and laid-back. The first one tended to ramble a bit, so I probably learned as much about him as he did about me! The second interviewer asked perceptive questions and laughed a lot. She did point out that MUO isn't really a school that turns out researchers-- they turn out clinicians. All the students seemed very open and friendly and satisfied with their school. They emphasized repeatedly the student-centered, non-competitive atmosphere of the school. The facilities were a LOT more impressive than I thought they would be. We were also presented with the impressive statistic that MUO students have a 98% pass rate of step 1 of the boards.

How did you prepare for the interview?

Used this website, reread my application essays, read up on healthcare news.

No really difficult questions-- no ethical dilemmas-- although my first interviewer began with the very open-ended, "So tell me about your family."

Instead of helping you find your interviewers' offices, they basically gave you a campus map and a room number, and wished you luck.
