✅ Interview Preparation and Impressions

How is the friendliness of the admissions office?

No responses

How is the responsiveness of the admissions office?

No responses

How did you prepare for the interview?

Read about the school (brochure, on-line).

What impressed you positively?

The facilities were very contemporary and state-of-the-art.

What impressed you negatively?

One of the largest number of students in each class and didn't believe that such a number would hinder the quality of student/faculty interactions.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

Nothing.

What are your general comments?

I had a pretty unremarkable experience. The orientation presentation was extremely fast and haphazard. The lady spoke way too fast during the 1 hour presentation. My interview with the faculty was pleasant (although he was very late to start the interview and early to finish it). My student interview occurred over lunch, which I thought was unusual to eat in front of someone interviewing you for admission to medical school.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
