What impressed you positively?
The buildings are all very new and the med students were all nice except for the one interviewing me (well i'm sure he is nice too, just not professional)
What impressed you negatively?
The med student that interviewed me, he was yawning, came half and hour late to the interview and asked a political question. My interview ended up being longer than an hour which could have been bad. Also there isn't much diversity in the school (reasoning I was given for this is because the State of indiana isn't very diverse which really isn't a good answer). Mostly fast food restaurants and burger places, no ethnic cuisine.
What did you wish you had known ahead of time?
That medical students also participated in the interview process
What are your general comments?
Overall pretty hectic as there are 100's of people being interviewed. Also my interview was during a presentation that I ended up missing which was poor planning on the admissions part.
What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
Should not plan interview during a presentation.
