💬 Interview Questions

What is one of the specific questions they asked you?

tell me about yourself.
What activities are you involved in ...very basic.

What was the most interesting question?

i wasn't asked any interesting questions but another guy had an interesting question. His interviewer (a very portly man) asked him to tell her what she would say about his appearance without being able to do a checkup or any tests. The kid told his interviewer that "You are fat and need to lose weight."Personally, I would not have picked that answer.

What are your general comments?

I applied for the 8 year Rochester Early Medical Scholars program for high school seniors. The interviews were not stressful at all. One interview was with a member of the admissions staff at the undergrad. and the second one was someone from the medical school. We waited around in the lounge for a while but had pool to keep us entertained. The med school and the undergrad are amazing. Everything is brand new. The med school is attached to Stong hospital. The students in the REMS program are awesome kids. Make the interviewer think you want to be like those kids. Just be able to carry on a conversation about anything. If you know how to converse, you'll do fine. Above all, have fun in this all expense paid weekend.
