⭐ Overall Impressions
How did the interview impress you?
No change 😐
What was the stress level of the interview?
5 out of 10
0 = Low Stress, 10 = High Stress
What are your general comments?
Everything was great...the only thing I didn't like was that I have a considerable amount of research experience. The interviewer did not spend more than 10 seconds talking about my research. I was kind of bummed about that. My only advice to other people is to know there AMCAS application and essay REALLY well before you walk in.
💬 Interview Process
What was the most interesting question?
Standard questions...nothing to out of the ordinary. Why medicine? How do you see yourself helping people in 10 years?
How did you prepare for the interview?
website...school catalog...read up on current healthcare issues...sample questions...looked in the mirror for 30 minutes and pretended to answer questions...read AMCAS essay and app
What was the most difficult question?
What is the most devastating this that happened to you? (This was difficult only b/c during preparation for the interview, I had prepared an answer to: what is the most DUMBEST thing you've ever done? So when he asked what is the most devastating thing you've done, I heard what is the most dumbest thing you've done. After I started to answer the wrong question, I was able to turn it around and still save myself.)
