⭐ Overall Impressions
How did the interview impress you?
Positively 🙂
What was the stress level of the interview?
5 out of 10
0 = Low Stress, 10 = High Stress
What are your general comments?
It was a pretty standard visit. An orientation type meeting, my interviews, lunch with students, then a tour. Get there early, the complex is huge and there are a bunch of buildings attached to eachother. It can be hard to find your way around.
💬 Interview Process
What is one of the specific questions they asked you?
Your file does not show much "maturation" how do you explain that? (I did not do many shadowing or community activities in college)
What was the most interesting question?
How do I feel about the current situation in Israel and do I see a possible way to resolve it?
How did you prepare for the interview?
I read the internet sites, my amcas and secondary applications, and also the school catalogue.
What was the most difficult question?
The standard "what is the biggest problem in medicine," but with a bunch of follow-ups on the practicality of the ways I would solve that problem if I were in charge.
What impressed you positively?
The students are really happy. The study rooms are awesome, each one has a p4 computer with a large TV as the monitor as well as a dvd player.
What impressed you negatively?
Even some of the male students call for security escorts if they are going to leave the school at night.
