How did you prepare for the interview?

u of mn website (not the best but good to get a sense of the school's curriculum) looked for sample interview questions online and also studied my application materials thoroughly.

What impressed you positively?

the interviewer told me exactly what he knew about me--basically the first part of the AMCAS application--no grades or test scores. i could see the sheets and he had highlighted portions of my personal statement, which he later asked me about. he really knew my application info and asked about it--so be prepared.

What impressed you negatively?

my tour group. make sure you get into a group with outgoing people, otherwise your tour and lunch won't be overly fun.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

this didn't happen to me, but make sure you don't park in the hospital parking ramp; it will cost you big $$.

What are your general comments?

this was my first interview. i was pretty nervous, but the interview was mainly converstaional. all of the students are really happy to be at the u of m, which really made me want to go there.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
