How did you prepare for the interview?

Read as much as I could about the school. Reviewed my own application very thoroughly. Kept up with current events, and read the feedback on this site. Don't worry - the interviewers were super-nice, and it was just an enjoyable conversation.

What impressed you positively?

The school is fabulous - the people were both intelligent and friendly. Perhaps the most diverse student body I saw in any of my interviews; there are students from a huge variety of socioeconomic and cultural backgrounds. I really can't say enough positive things about the place, and I sensed that others in my interview group felt the same.

What impressed you negatively?

Nothing.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

The school has such an excellent reputation, particularly among residency directors. The students were extremely impressive, but also down-to-earth and very friendly.

What are your general comments?

Of all the schools I interviewed at, including other highly-ranked ones, UMich has by far the best facilities and best atmosphere. The buildings were modern, clean, attractive. The people were impressive and friendly. The curriculum is great, and it's only getting better with the changes that were made for next year. UMich is an amazing place. I hope I am accepted - I would definitely attend.
