How did you prepare for the interview?

SDN, UM website, re-read my application, Jackson-Memorial website.

What impressed you positively?

The cirriculum, the early patient contact, Jackson's committment to treating the underserved, archived lectures, total wireless at the school.

What impressed you negatively?

Coming from NYC, the student body didn't seem very diverse.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

That getting a interview is a big big deal; of the 1,000 or so secondaries submitted, ~320 are interviewed and ~250 are offered acceptances. Pretty good odds I'd say

What are your general comments?

Overall a great day. It started at 9 am and ended at 2 pm so we could beat the traffic home. The admissions office, faculty, and pretty much everybody was extremely friendly and very proud of being a UM med student. Lunch was fantastic compared with the other schools I interviewed at. The clinical training is superb; my interviewer, even though he wasn't a physician, said that should be the greatest draw of the school of medicine.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
