What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

Interviewers are there to basically be your "advocates" when your file is presented to the admissions committee. It is to your benefit to make the interview as conversational as possible. The better impression you give to the two people interviewing you, the better they will beable to advocate for your admissions into the school. Also know that if you are invited for an interview, you are more than half way there to being admitted. They take very seriously the candidates that they invite for interviews

What are your general comments?

It was a positive experience. All of the admissions staff is very friendly and helpful. I interviewed with a third year student and the head of the emergency medicine department at UMDNJ-SOM. The interview was very short,and relaxed
