How did you prepare for the interview?
Studying questions from here, chatted with people in the waiting room to see what kind of questions they were receiving.
What impressed you positively?
Super cute school, they give you your own study area in the anatomy lab. The faculty were super nice and the students really emphasized that it is a collaborative environment amongst peers (not competitive against one another). The town seems to be really safe and residential, and there is ample parking!
What impressed you negatively?
The school was a little dated -- otherwise, I don't really have any negative feelings towards K-State.
What did you wish you had known ahead of time?
:) Don't show up hideously early to check in -- or do so and then go do something else. My interview was in the afternoon and I sat in the waiting room and stressed for HOURS!
What are your general comments?
<3! Really appealing area, I loved the country around K-State. It's NOT flat at all, rolling hills and prairie kind of looking. Faculty and students were super nice and laid back, the interview was pleasant. No "stump the chump" questions!
