How did you prepare for the interview?

Read personal statement, school literature

What impressed you positively?

Friendliness and cooperation of student body and faculty

What impressed you negatively?

New recreation facilities would not be started on, or completed before I would enroll there.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

Most rotations are done out of state. 1/5 go to Ohio. If I wanted to go to Ohio, I would have applied out there.

What are your general comments?

If you like a smaller town, this place is nice. I did not like how most of the student body must relocate after their first 2 years at DMU. The interview was so laid back its almost a joke. It seems more like a formality they must get out of the way. If you interview here you have a very good chance of getting accepted.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
