How did you prepare for the interview?

Reviewed my application and the UCONN website

What impressed you positively?

The school is active in the community and works with 4 very large hospitals so it has a diverse patient base. The students all help each other because of the pass/fail system.

What impressed you negatively?

Farmington, CT is BORING but it's not too far from Hartford, New Haven, or NYC.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

All students are requried to volunteer in the community. The grading system is entirely pass/fail.

What are your general comments?

We started with a student interview which was extremely low key. The student was very honest about the positive and negative aspects of the school. The physician interview was not quite as relaxed but still pretty conversational. There were not difficult questions.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
