How did you prepare for the interview?

sdn and i looked up some info on the school.

What impressed you positively?

the students seemed really cool and very happy to be there.

What impressed you negatively?

i guess that the hospital is about 20 minutes away. (that is where my md interview was)

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

that the interview is semi-open file...i said honestly how many schools i applied to but i could have lied b/c he didn't have the list of the schools that i applied to.

What are your general comments?

overall it was pretty laid back. i really liked my student interviewer and we really hit it off...more like a conversation. the md interviewer was unorganized and totally unprepared to see me...he knew nothing about me and the interview ended really quick he was not at all interested it seemed. that kind of bummed me out.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
