How did you prepare for the interview?

Nothing much, I read on medical ethics which was helpful. Mostly I just tried to be myself and be straightforward.

Report Response | I was asked this too

What impressed you positively?

The School is great, the ADCOM friendly and the students seem generally co-operative and fairly at ease for students in medical school. The lecture that I sat in on was engaging and the professor clearly brilliant, constructing creative and elaborate analogies which spoke to my learning style.

Report Response | I was asked this too

What impressed you negatively?

Not in the hippest part of syracuse, but I'm familiar with the area so I knew this before hand.

Report Response | I was asked this too

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

That it was nothing to worry about, and it would actually be quite fun and fascinating. The other interviewees were friendly as well and everyone was put at ease by the ADCOMS presentations.

Report Response | I was asked this too

What are your general comments?

This school is my first choice for a number of reasons, and I'm from the area, my family is nearby, and the tuition would be half that of any private school, so I'm biased. But SUNY Upstate strikes me as good as any school I've been to, including top schools in major metropolitan areas, and crouse is a great hospital where one would get an enormous diversity of experience. Nothing really gave me pause about my visit.

Report Response | I was asked this too

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?

I had an overall very positive experience. I wish you added to your FAQs how you accept brief relevant updates via email and can upload longer ones to the web once you receive and interview. Nothing else.
