💬 Interview Process

What is one of the specific questions they asked you?

General questions about resume

What was the most interesting question?

If you hit a deer on the road, what would you do?

How did you prepare for the interview?

Re-read my AMCAS application.

What was the most difficult question?

A pregnant 11-year old comes into your office requesting an abortion. What do you do? I found out later that the interviewer works for Planned Parenthood -- a blatantly unprofessional question.

What impressed you positively?

Computer facilities looked nice.

What impressed you negatively?

Bitter students too eager to share gripe stories -- scratch the surface and the bile gushes forth on classes, students who make up blood pressure numbers in charts b/c they forget how to read the settings, etc.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

Every time the school gets in trouble for its ancient curriculum, it just ADDS something -- never takes outdated stuff out. Enough students told me about this to make me nervous.
