How did you prepare for the interview?

read studentdoctor.net

What impressed you positively?

parkland hospital and the amount of hands-on experience med students get

What impressed you negatively?

some of the students seemed pretty arrogant, but others were really down-to-earth

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

the cutthroat reputation southwestern has seems to have no basis; this seems like a great school and the gossip is unfair

What are your general comments?

Both my interviewers were extremely nice and casual, even though there were unusual questions both seemed eager to answer any questions I had. I would definitely recommend attending clinical rounds to get a better idea of what sort of training 3rd and 4th years get. Also going to the lunch with the med students was very helpful because they gave honest opinions about their school.
