How did you prepare for the interview?

Read SDN, stayed and talked with student host, review my essays, etc.

What impressed you positively?

I really like the atmosphere and the comraderie among the students.

What impressed you negatively?

I got the impression that all lecture classes are held in one room. The professors may change but the students stay within one room.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

I should have researched my choice of service more thoroughly to my advantage.

What are your general comments?

The interview was great. Since it snowed, I had only one interviewer instead of the usual two. We talked about why I want to pursue medicine and the rest of the why's. I was the last person for the day so I was not press for time. I struck a conversation that lasted over an hour. Usually, I think the interview should only last 30-45 mins but I figure why not ask a few more questions before leaving.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
