How did you prepare for the interview?

Read my secondary, read SDN

What impressed you positively?

The School EXTREMELY support MD/MPH. Very flexible MPH program with 50% tuition of that year paid for by the school. New and nice buildings with CDC and American Cancer Society nearby.

What impressed you negatively?

I'm still skeptical even the dean assured that the A-F grading system and block exam schedules are not that bad.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

There are not a lot of Californians either interviewing or attending Emory. Only 1 attending in this year's class. Emory is a very "white" campus, a sharp contrast to California.

What are your general comments?

This school really impressed me with the amount of opportunities available to intern at CDC, and work in a universal access hospital (Grady takes any patients, even foreigners). Coca Cola's money is evident in all the new and nice buildings. After the interview, Emory moved to the top of my list.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
