How did you prepare for the interview?

Read MSAR, U.Pitt website, SDN, newspapers, etc.

What impressed you positively?

The friendly students and the surrounding area- take time to walk around Oakland, Shadyside, etc!

What impressed you negatively?

The PBL format- but others might like that. Can't tell how electronically up-to-date the school is, I asked about it but couldn't get a straight answer; parking is BAD for med students too!

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

?

What are your general comments?

Overall, a good day, but very long. You will probably have lots of down time between interviews. Other interviewees were very fun to talk with though! U.Pitt seems to produce very happy med students!
