💬 Interview Questions

What is one of the specific questions they asked you?

A woman with a family history of breast cancer wants her employer to pay for genetic testing to determine if she has the defective gene. What do you think should be done?
What would you do if you could not pursue scientific interests?
Would you work in an HMO?

What was the most interesting question?

My most interesting questions were about string theory and the characteristics of a 10 or 26 dimension universe.

What was the most difficult question?

I didn't think that any where horribly difficult, but some were thought provoking ethical situation questions, and one about at what point did I think life starts (i.e. fertilization or not).

How did you prepare for the interview?

Made certain that I was fairly aware of goings on at the school, read the prior interviews on SDN, reread my AMCAS and secondary application.

What impressed you positively?

The conversation I had with my second interviewer. He was a fascinating individual with interests similar to my own. However, I know that he had also asked the guy before me, "How does a battery work?" He liked physics and chemistry a lot.

What impressed you negatively?

Nothing really. I work here now.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

Again, nothing. I am relatively familiar with the institution.

What are your general comments?

I had a great time. It was my first interview, so I was nervous, but it turned out to be an enjoyable experience.
