How did you prepare for the interview?

I read "DO: Osotepathic Medicine in America" by Gevitz, read health articles on NYTIMES.COM, read up on HMOs, osteopathic medicine, shadowed a DO...and didn't use any of it.

Report Response | I was asked this too

What impressed you positively?

The fact that I was not stressed. How stressed can you be in 15 minutes? If you get an interview from UMDNJSOM, they want to make sure you are what you say you are. I get the feeling they know if they want you or not LONG before the interview offer comes in the mail.

Report Response | I was asked this too

What impressed you negatively?

The interview was so short...I didn't know whether I made a good impression or blew the whole thing. I am happy to report I didn't............I GOT IN!!!

Report Response | I was asked this too

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

I wish I had known the interview was only 15 minutes. I would not have given up a day's pay

Report Response | I was asked this too

What are your general comments?

Overall, a good experience. It is a SMALL school, so if you need a crowd,; it's not for you. If you need to be IN the city, it's not for you. But, if you like a close knit group, practically one-on-one instruction, and people sincere about making you a DO when your acceptance letter comes; it's for you. Every school has its issues, but this school is small enough to where you won't get lost if you have an issue.
