How did you prepare for the interview?

Interview feedback, temple website, went over AMCAS

What impressed you positively?

The children's hospital, how they're handling the probation issue, and the non-competetive atmosphere

What impressed you negatively?

Facilities weren't great, but apparently they're improving that (newly renovated library and new med school in 2008)

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

nothing really surprising

What are your general comments?

My interviewer arrived about twenty minutes late, which was a little unsettling, but it turned out fine. The interview was fast-paced, but overall quite laid back. The tour was great. The financial aid meeting, however, was a little dull. They also really enforce the issue that they're recovering from their accreditation problems.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
