How did you prepare for the interview?

I visited the school a year and a half before I interviewed there. I read this and the medical school's website.

What impressed you positively?

The school is literally just around the corner from the hospital (in the same building).

Report Response | I was asked this too

What impressed you negatively?

It is an older facility.

Report Response | I was asked this too

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

You can park for free in the parking lot directly in front of the school. The medical school gives you a pass that validates the parking there.

What are your general comments?

There was a small group of students during this interview day (three of us). We started the day about 11:00 a.m. We met with the school's dean, who is very nice. Then we had lunch with two second year medical students, and these students also gave us a tour of the medical school. The students really enjoy the school. The school is older, but there are many advantages to going to this school: the school is in the same building as the hospital, the cost of living in Albany is very inexpensive, and the community is great for raising a family. The tuition is high because it is a private school. My first interview was in the hospital, while my second interview was in the admissions office. Both interviewers were very friendly, and asked a lot of questions about my background - know your application well (dates, locations, etc.). My second interviewer asked a lot of ethical questions, so make sure you are prepared.
