How did you prepare for the interview?

I familiarized myself with the philosophy behind Osteopathic Medicine, read through my application, and browsed SDN.

What impressed you positively?

The students were really warm and friendly. Also, Dr. Haight is a great resource! Plus, the San Francisco Bay Area is awesome (aside from Vallejo).

What impressed you negatively?

The aesthetics in the campus leave a bit to be desired. I was also asked the same question two times during the interview, which made me feel like the interviewers werent even listening! Everyone else seemed to get really great questions, though.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

Most of the students live on campus. Also, there is NOTHING on the island, other than the campus. No Starbucks here!

What are your general comments?

I really liked Touro, and I will be attending there. However, I was a little disappointed with the interview questions. Aside from that, I thought that the panel style interview would be nerve-wracking, but it was actually rather pleasant. It takes the pressure off of you.
