Reviewed AMCAS, secondary, Northwestern website

What impressed you positively?

The hospital is the most amazing facility I've ever seen. It really is like a hotel with a grand piano and Starbucks in the entrance and a painting and pull out bed in every room. Also, the collaborative learning curriculum is pretty impressive.

What impressed you negatively?

One of our interviewers seemed completely disinterested in our answers regardless of whether they were good or not.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

They tell you that you're going to be meeting with a dean to "update your file" but really it's a mini interview.

What are your general comments?

Overall a really good experience. It was definitely interesting to do the group interview and get to hear how other people answer questions. The students were very nice and happy to be there.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
