How did you prepare for the interview?

Reviewed AMCAS and secondary, UNC's website

What impressed you positively?

UNC has a very heterogenous student body, and all of the students seemed fun, approachable, and seemed to love the school. I met several students who approached me to talk just because I was dressed for an interview.

What impressed you negatively?

The construction.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

There might be huge gaps between interviews, so bring something to read or study besides your regular stuff you bring along in your folder.

What are your general comments?

I'm a UNC student, and I was much more pleased about the day than I expected. Everyone was very helpful, especially the students giving the tour. The interviews were definitely long and serious, but not intimidating at all. I was surprisingly never asked why medicine, or why UNC. More thought provoking questions and specific questions to my file were asked. Definitely bring something to do during the lag time, and have a plan for where you're going to park before you get to campus.
