Report Response | I was asked this too

The students were happy, felt they had gotten a good education.

Report Response | I was asked this too

What impressed you negatively?

My second interviewer didn't show up. They sent me to another member of the committee, who announced that he had forgotten all of his interview questions because he had done his last interview the week before. He had to cancel a lunch appointment, had never seen my file, and was the type who wanted to memorize your file. We spent most of the interview talking about things that he already had on my AMCAS app.

Report Response | I was asked this too

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

That I wasn't going to get in anyway. If I had known that, I would have gone home and told them to call when they were ready for me to interview.

Report Response | I was asked this too

What are your general comments?

The whole experience was very unprofessional. Rather than preparing another interviewer, they dumped me on someone totally unprepared, after having all morning to check and make sure the interviewers were accounted for. Nobody bothered to apologize, even when I came back this year for interviews.
