💬 Interview Questions

What is one of the specific questions they asked you?

If you had to tell a 10 year-old girl that she had to have her leg amputated, how would you do it?
Why medicine? (And the follow-up: Why osteopathic medicine?)
You have a 5-year old practice. A colleague wants to nominate you to go to Washington and implement legislature and policies that will improve health care for everyone in the nation. However, you would not have time for your practice. Would you go to Washington or stay with your practice? (With follow-up questions for either position.)

What was the most interesting question?

If a colleague came up to you after residency and said he didn't enjoy the profession--it was not what he expected--and he's $100,000 in debt, what advice would you give him?

What was the most difficult question?

You are a senior resident and a new, very talented resident joins your staff, but he has a huge ego and treats your subordinates as such. How would you manage the situation?

What are your general comments?

The interviewers make you feel comfortable from the start. They tell you how they go about asking questions, and they give you the opportunity to ask them questions at the end. Be prepared for several hypothetical/ethical questions (but know that there is no right answer...just be able to back up your answer, as they will ask follow-up questions).

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
