What was the most interesting question?

What if you were working at hospital where a patient was just rushed to the emergency room requiring a ventilator? Problem is, the power goes out when you get one to the patient. The only one working is the one hooked up to a patient with a terminal disease and told by the family not to pull the plug. What would you do?

What impressed you positively?

The facilities are great, the students and faculty are all very friendly, Kansas City is not rural as I thought. The interview was low stress...they just want to get to know you. No grilling here!!

Report Response | I was asked this too

What are your general comments?

I loved the school. It's a systems based approach so you have a smooth transition from the first 2 years to the clinical rotations. I stayed with a first-year student before my interview. Defintely take up the offer because you get an insider's look at the school. I even got to go to a class. It was a huge interview group- about 20. So far, they say that 5 interview groups have been through the process- the final class will be around 230ish out of the 550 interviewed. THe chances are pretty good but I don't want to jinx myself. Plenty of hospitals in the area to get experience and preceptorship opportunities. They are setting up a new research facility for next year. Housing is very affordable. I would definitely go if I get accepted.
