How did you prepare for the interview?

Med Ethics website, review all the stuff they sent me. I really wish I had read a book on health policy. I feel like I got raked over the coals on that one.

What impressed you positively?

Admissions staff was very helpful, and Dr. Hunt's presentation at lunch was very informative.

What impressed you negatively?

The interview. I felt totally raked over the coals, and came out feeling about 2 inches tall. I felt a lack of respect and a very negative undertone. The interview made me seriously question if I would want to go to a school that treats students like that from the begining.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

The negative vibe given off by the staff. It may just have been my impression, but it seems it kind of wears off on the students too. They were still happy to be in med school, but by no means seems overwhelmingly enthusiastic about their school.

What are your general comments?

I felt like I had been to the underworld. It was the least fun experience I have had in the last 3 years. No warm fuzzies here.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
