💬 Interview Questions

What is one of the specific questions they asked you?

Are you really interested in that specialty???

What was the most interesting question?

I somehow ended up with 2 very laid-back interviewers. They didn't really ask many questions - we just talked. I also got the quesiton "Do you know what your getting in to?" This was my first interview and it couldn't have a better introduction. Everyone was so very nice. Very minimal stress.

What was the most difficult question?

There were no difficult quesitons. The interviewers were just interested in my background. Very basic stuff... what field peeks my interest etc.

How did you prepare for the interview?

I went to Houston a day or 2 in advance to make sure I could find the building/parking garage. Looked on their website for info about subjects that are of interest to me to help develop some questions

What impressed you positively?

Huge facility, huge city, nice people, super students, great atmosphere. The dean gave a nice talk about keeping your ego in check and such.

What impressed you negatively?

We didn't get a chance to see the anatomy lab.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

That they are honestly very casual and there is no need to stress. I spent a lot of time thinking up answers to hypothetical questions... it was a complete waste of time. Best advice I can think of is to relax and not worry about the interview at UT Houston

What are your general comments?

Good overall. Just a note... I don't think the interviewers have the full file. I believe they just have GPA, MCAT and a couple of lines from essay.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
