Read through MMI scenarios, spoke to a professor about the interview process, and reviewed my application!
What impressed you positively?
Everyone there was so nice and welcoming. We spoke with so many medical students throughout the day and the staff were lovely. The whole day had a very close-knit community feel to it. The facilities are also beautiful and very modern.
What impressed you negatively?
Nothing. I loved everything I saw and learned about the school. It seems like an amazing program with a lot of opportunity and the interview day was organized very well.
What did you wish you had known ahead of time?
That I didn't need to be so nervous - which is obviously easier said after the fact. They truly worked so hard to make us all comfortable, even when I was in the MMI stations. Another thing is to not waste your time reviewing hundreds of MMI scenarios. You can't anticipate what they'll ask you and I can tell you not one of the scenarios I reviewed was in my MMI. You also don't need to talk for the whole six minutes. Every station had follow-up questions for you to answer.
What are your general comments?
I really loved my experience here. My interview group didn't go until near the end of the day (around 3:30PM when we had gotten there at 11AM) so that was a little bit stressful. Overall, it was a really relaxed day and a great chance to make connections.
