⭐ Overall Impressions
How did the interview impress you?
Positively 🙂
What was the stress level of the interview?
3 out of 10
0 = Low Stress, 10 = High Stress
What are your general comments?
Overall it was a positive experience. I'm a little worried about tuition being raised significantly over the next couple years. But my visit definitly put the school in contention for my top choice. Students are very happy here, and that may well be the best reason to attend a school.
💬 Interview Process
What is one of the specific questions they asked you?
Why do you want to become a doctor?
What was the most interesting question?
Tell me about an experience with a patient that was memorable.
How did you prepare for the interview?
SDN , school website, current events
What was the most difficult question?
What were your SAT scores? (it took me a solid 30 seconds to remember)
What impressed you positively?
Exams are structured so that after an exam students have free weekends to go home and/or just relax. Also all of the lectures are digitally recorded..
What impressed you negatively?
There isn't wireless internet in the library or lecture halls. That was sort of disappointing. When I asked someone how long it would be, they said it might be years?
What did you wish you had known ahead of time?
Beautiful campus. Not so far from NYC (about 2:30 hours by train). You need a car if you want to go there.
