💬 Interview Questions

What is one of the specific questions they asked you?

No responses

What was the most interesting question?

I was asked how my military leadership experiences could translate over into medicine. Really was thought-provoking, but I had thought of it many times before I was asked. The main push as to why I was asked that was the movie-tainted portrayal of military leadership.

What was the most difficult question?

I honestly did not think that any of the questions could be classified as difficult, guess I just like to talk.

✅ 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?

I did mock interviews, read this site, kcom.edu, and knew myself well.

What impressed you positively?

The people were all incredibly friendly with each other, not just their classmates or the obvious interviewees. I also like the feel that the school is integral to the community and the fact that the school is directly associated (read same building) with clinics and a hospital.

What impressed you negatively?

Absolutely nothing.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

The students get real exposure to patients from the get go by assisting with performing school physicals.

What are your general comments?

You really must like a small town to be happy here. The nearest 'big' city is Columbia, MO and that is an hour and a half away. The school is great, it doesn't have a lot extra things in the halls to 'enhance' the look. It gave me the impression that they prefer to spend their money on programs for the students. Literally everybody knew everybody, which is great. The second years are all very friendly and helpful when giving the tours. The admissions staff are all very polite and a joy to be around. The faculty is knowledgeable and teach here because they LOVE teaching. I cannot say enough about how much I like this school.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
