How did you prepare for the interview?

I visited their web site and took advantage of their offer to be housed by a medical student on the night before my interview. I guess I just did my homework about UM.

What impressed you positively?

The friendliness and candor of the students I met on the tour and at lunch. They are really enthusiastic about their school, more than any other students at schools I've visited this year (6 of them so far). The incredible opportunities of early clinical training and the diversity of clinical training experiences are unmatched.

What impressed you negatively?

The traffic in Miami. The student who housed me the night before leaves for school an hour before his classes start.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

How relaxed, friendly, and informal the experience was. I was prepared for an experience like I had at other schools. I just had a good, positive visit at UM.

What are your general comments?

Right from the time I got to the Office of Admissions, the staff were incredibly helpful and friendly. The day was superbly organized. Interviewers came to the Office so I didn't have to find the interviewer's office. The student tour could have included more things to see but the enthusiasm of the students I met at lunch was a real plus!
