How did you prepare for the interview?

SDN, OHSU website, practiced answering obvious questions...and obviously should have re-read my Alzheimers paper...but I didnt....

What impressed you positively?

The students are SO happy with the school, the administration is very open to chance and suggestions, and the campus is beautiful!!!!!

What impressed you negatively?

No real emphasis on community service, parking is a mess

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

Nothing really...

What are your general comments?

It was a good overall experience, I just had one really really tough interview. I was given no hints as to how either of the interviewers felt about me, and was asked some very thought provoking questions. I would not be too stressed about it, but really think through your answers and have a clear idea of why you want to be a doctor, and why OHSU.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
