No responses

How is the responsiveness of the admissions office?

No responses

How did you prepare for the interview?

considered how to approach standard interview questions, reviewed my research, looked over my AMCAS application, thought about questions to ask the interviewer about LSU

What impressed you positively?

the Student Learning Center, the emphasis on independent study (as opposed to classes extending all afternoon), the great opportunity for clinical exposure, student parking lot directly across street from main building

What impressed you negatively?

Nothing really.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

Don't worry--it's a pretty low stress interview. They were there to converse, not to grill you.

What are your general comments?

I really enjoyed my experience @ LSU-NO. I think it would be a fabulous place to train, not only because of the new curriculum and rare opportunity to use patient simulators, etc., but also the school is very welcoming to its medical students. I think I'd be very happy there.
