⭐ Overall Impressions

How did the interview impress you?

Positively 🙂

What was the stress level of the interview?

5 out of 10
0 = Low Stress, 10 = High Stress

What are your general comments?

The students and faculty were all very nice and concerned with putting you at ease. The panel interview is a little stressful just b/c it's a new experience, but it wasn't bad at all. It was just like an individual interview in front of other people.
💬 Interview Process

What is one of the specific questions they asked you?

What do you like to do for fun?

What was the most interesting question?

What major adversity have you had to overcome during school?

How did you prepare for the interview?

Read a book on health care issues, re-read applications, looked at feedback on this site.

What was the most difficult question?

What will you want your Emory classmates to remember you for in twenty years?

What impressed you positively?

The campus and facilities.

What impressed you negatively?

Nothing really. The hospital food wasn't very good.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

It's a long long day with a lot of walking. You're divided into two groups, one tours in the morning and interviews in the afternoon and the other vice versa. Bring a snack if you get hungry easily. And the panel interview really isn't bad at all. All the interviewers have read your personal statement, but not the rest of your application.
