✅ Interview Preparation and Impressions

How is the friendliness of the admissions office?

8 out of 10

How is the responsiveness of the admissions office?

7 out of 10

How did you prepare for the interview?

I looked at MMI prompts, but it's really difficult to prepare for because there's very little chance that anything you specifically prepared for will come up in the interviews.

What impressed you positively?

Cincinnati Children's and other surrounding hospitals have great reputations, and the school name carries a degree of prestige.

What impressed you negatively?

The facilities themselves are nice and updated, but still kind of drab. It just didn't feel like a place I want to spend four years. It didn't feel very welcoming either.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

HOW LONG THE DAY WOULD BE - JESUS

What are your general comments?

The interview day was 8 hours long. Come on. Detailed descriptions of every class we'll take over the next four years is not interview day material.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?

Shorter interview day please. PLEASE. Some of us traveled a long way and really need to hit the road home.
