✅ Interview Preparation and Impressions

10 out of 10

How is the responsiveness of the admissions office?

10 out of 10

How did you prepare for the interview?

First interview ever within the first group of the season: mock interviews with a friend

What impressed you positively?

Being divided into small groups and being assigned a medical student for the duration of our interview experience really made up for the negative tour experience

What impressed you negatively?

The tour was a bit short and we had a very spastic biomed student instead of a medical student giving us the tour, which I found a bit disappointing. Also, I wish my interviewer had other questions for me. He basically asked all of the questions on the sheet, and while I elaborated, I could only do so much because I added so much detail.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

No responses

What are your general comments?

I felt like this whole interview was just a formality. I was told that the earlier you're interviewed, the more likely you are to get in, and they get choosier as the year closes (pretty much filled by Christmas) and a lot of wait lists during the spring semester.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?

I wish they would call or email your acceptance instead of using snail mail as your FIRST notification. Apparently in-state students receive their letters later? I received mine a week after I saw on SDN that other students got accepted. I just wanted to know!! :p
