How did you prepare for the interview?

Went throught UW's medical ethics site. You Must Do That! The ethics questions are based on that site and it will really help you to think about the big picture.

What impressed you positively?

The school is awesome, the tour was poor but I did my own tour and love the area.

What impressed you negatively?

The admissions staff lady seems mentally impaired, not really but she did a poor job presenting information.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

Nothing really, I was very impressed.

What are your general comments?

This was my hardest interview, also my first. The girl ahead of me walked out literally white in the face. She found it very intimidating to sit infront of the panel and have them shoot questions at her. They can be tough, but stand your ground and work to direct the conversation. They will let you do that if you try. Remember to laugh, smile and act like you are having a good time, even if you are hating every second of it.
