What impressed you positively?

The students and faculty are all extremely friendly and made an effort to be involved in the interview day, even in the middle of mid-terms. Also, there are several teaching hospitals attached to the medical school.

Lack of technological advances...lectures are only audio tape recorded, no data ports in class rooms, etc.

Report Response | I was asked this too

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

There is a strong emphasis on clinical experience from day one. They are proud of this (it seems to be their number 1 selling feature) and it is good to cite when answering why UTHSCSA.

What are your general comments?

This was a very enjoyable interview experience. The interviewers were friendly and created a low-stress environment. I was asked no political/health care questions. The interviews are only partially open-file, they only have your demographics and personal statement (no grades, mcats or experiences). Very nice on the whole, a lot of positives at this school.
