💬 Interview Process

What is one of the specific questions they asked you?

Why did you withdraw from a certain course?

What was the most interesting question?

None

How did you prepare for the interview?

Studied my application, school's web site. Prepared questions and came up with reasons I wanted to go to this school.

What was the most difficult question?

Why did you wait two years after college to apply to medical school? Why did you choose to get involved in research? Why your project is important? Be prepared to talk about correlation to medicine; my research has almost none.

What impressed you positively?

The dormes are great and cheap. During the visit there was nothing impressive, but the things I found out from their web site and their students made me rank this school high on my list.

What impressed you negatively?

The day was unorganized and they didn't sell themselves as well as a lot of other schools. My interview was at the Mortifier Hospital, which is pretty far away from the school, at least 20 min. ride by a shuttle bus. Then I had to walk for about another 20 min. to the building where I had to meet my interviewer and the day was very cold.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

Nothing
