How did you prepare for the interview?

NYU Website, this website, pre-med office resources.

What impressed you positively?

Although we didn't get to see it due to security issues Bellevue sums it up - the amount and diversity of clinical exposure is superb.

What impressed you negatively?

The facilities - having the feeling of being in a basement even when you know you're on the seventh floor. Shabby appearance overall. Dorms are terrible - for anyone who did NYU undergrad - it's like Weinstein singles but with communal bathrooms.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

No responses

What are your general comments?

My interviewer was very pleasant and the interview was relaxed and comfortable. I got the sense that she really understood what I wanted to emphasize in my application and we agreed on a number of points regarding education and medicine in general - it felt very much like a conversation. I have to say that while the interview itself went very well I wasn't impressed with the tour - one of the students who led it kept talking about how she does not enjoy doing a number of things (such as dissecting, studying with other people and living in the dorms... to the point that I wondered why she came to NYU or med school in general) Other than that, the facilities left me unimpressed. Bottom line is I wasn't sold on the school.
