How did you prepare for the interview?

SDN.

What impressed you positively?

Location, good lunch!

What impressed you negatively?

Price, block style curriculum, and the price. The medical student giving the tour told us that about 20 students fail the boards every year, and that the faculty doesn't care about student concerns.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

Price, costs quite a bit.

What are your general comments?

Very conversational, however, did not feel like an interview. The interviewer kept questioning my interest in medicine, insinuating that because I don't come from a family with a medical background, I wouldn't be well-suited for medicine.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
