How did you prepare for the interview?

I talked to friends who had already interviewed there and with friends who were students there.

What impressed you positively?

The staff was amazingly amicable. I felt as if I really belong ed there, more so than at any other interviews I have attended. Also, I saw a number of people at the school that I knew.

What impressed you negatively?

My second interviewer had to cancel and I was randomly assigned to the head of the organ donation program/anatomy department.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

That one of my interviewers was head of the psychiatry department. It was a bit frightening at first...

What are your general comments?

I fell in love with the school, but I had my doubts since I was out of state and didn't have 13'a or above on all sections of the MCAT. I felt like I really belonged at this school.
