How did you prepare for the interview?

SDN, U Chicago Materials, reviewed my secondary

What impressed you positively?

Almost everything, the integration of the school into the U of C campus, the hospitals, the honesty with which the students spoke about the school, the support the Office of Medical Education gives to its students.

What impressed you negatively?

The preclinical classes are mostly taught by PhD's who don't have a clinical focus.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

The supportive environment, very different than what people usually think of when they think about University of Chicago.

What are your general comments?

Pritzer is a great school. The interview process is very relaxed. You interviewers don't get to look at your grades and scores but rather your essays and activities. Make for a great conversation.
