How did you prepare for the interview?

SDN, medical school prep books with sample questions, reading about current medical issuses (AMA is a good source for that)

What impressed you positively?

Very organized, comfortable, interviews were conversational. Trust me, they just want to see if you can carry on a reasonable conversation and make sure you know about Osteopathic medicine.

What impressed you negatively?

nothing :)

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

not much, I read up on OU pretty thoroughly and know some med students there.

What are your general comments?

You spend the morning learning about OU and touring the medical conference. You have lunch with students, then from about 1-2:50 or so you have 3 half hour interviews, they you can leave. It's VERY relaxed. And... If you're accepted, they email you the next morning!!!

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
