💬 Interview Questions

What is one of the specific questions they asked you?

No responses

What was the most interesting question?

Hmm.. the questions were pretty standard- background, motivation for medicine, comparisons between access to healthcare here and in Nigeria where I grew up. My first interviewer wanted to know why I was applying to the school instead of other well known schools-I'm from Houston but went to school out of state. Hobbies etc....

What was the most difficult question?

see above- everything was pretty standard- nothing too difficult. I didn't get asked any ethical questions- just my stance on access to healthcare and ethnic disparities in access to health care (based on my file).

How did you prepare for the interview?

Brwosed SDN quite a bit, visited the school's website and the area of medicine at the school that I was interested in, read up on faculty research at the school in my area of interest.

What impressed you positively?

The students, the atmosphere, the school's proximity to the medical center and the quality and depth of ongoing research.

What impressed you negatively?

Construction- they're still working on reconstructing the ground floor which was damaged during the flood.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

Nothing really- bring comfortable shoes if you plan on doing the tours, and an umbrella just in case- it rained quite a bit.

What are your general comments?

Overall- a positive experience.
