💬 Interview Questions

What is one of the specific questions they asked you?

...it's been a while. Sorry, but I don't remember specifics. What I can tell you is it was a very casual discussion that revolved around "Are you SURE you don't want to just try again for the US schools?" The interview was encouraging me to do so.

How is the responsiveness of the admissions office?

How did you prepare for the interview?

I played beer pong with my brother, and passed out to a random girl massaging my head on her couch. I woke up at 3am, and drove back to my hotel, got a few more hours of sleep, then drove downtown for my interview. (My experience with these interviews has been the more relaxed you are the better. Still wouldn't necessarily recommend this approach for all.)

What impressed you positively?

How causal it was. The interviewer wanted to get to know you. AND, most importantly, he gave me his true opinion of the school - which was a warning of things to come

What impressed you negatively?

Nothing

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

No responses

What are your general comments?

My interviewer was one of the lead surgeons at MCV (possibly the best medical school in Virginia). He told me he had to work very hard to get past the stigma he had attached to him as an FMG (foreign medical grad.) But he obviously did get past it. St. Geroge's is a place of last resort. It will will get you to where you need to go, but you will always struggle.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?

they suck as hard as an admissions office can suck. Good luck dealing with them
