💬 Interview Process

What is one of the specific questions they asked you?

Why Wayne State?

What was the most interesting question?

Am I prepared for everything I will see working in an inner city Detroit hospital?

How did you prepare for the interview?

Went over my primary AMCAS materials, which is literally all we talked about.

What was the most difficult question?

No questions were overly difficult (none stand out at least).

What impressed you positively?

The interviewer was genuinely interested in what I had to say and was very nice. I also was able to sit in on a class because my interview time had to be changed due to a family emergency. It was great to see what going there would be like. If you have time after/before an interview I highly recommend asking if this is an option.

What impressed you negatively?

The lecture rooms are very dismal (no windows and older). Seemed a bit gloomy.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

Don't be super nervous about this one. It is incredibly laid back and just a conversation about your primary materials.

Go paperless for secondary fees! Nearly every other school has an online payment system. Seemed a bit archaic to have to snail mail them.
