How did you prepare for the interview?

relaxed and stared at the wall for a bit.

What impressed you positively?

you get the opportunity to work in a student run clinic from day one...Some students were even allowed to do stitches and draw blood during their first year...They put a huge emphasis on the clinical stuff, which is great, and the fact that the school is attached to the hospital is a definite plus

What impressed you negatively?

Newark. Nothing good about this city, besides the fact that it is the location of the airport, and you can leave it quickly. If you can look past the location , the school is wonderful. And, they just built ( i think this year ) all these new town homes and apartments right across the street, so you won't have to live in a nasty newark apartment.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

Don't go down the wrong street when driving to or from the campus...you may get shot.

What are your general comments?

45 minute conversation, stress free, just trying to get to know you better...no biggi.
