How did you prepare for the interview?

Talked to my friends who were already in medical school; went to my school's pre-health seminars on the interview; kept up with current events; got a list of the most commonly asked questions (not that they ever come up... but the usual "why do you want to be a doctor" "why do you think you would be good at this" "why do you want to come to [school]" ... these inevitably come up during conversation.

What impressed you positively?

The comraderie amongst the M2's and their relationship with professors (we ran into a few during the tour).

What impressed you negatively?

When walking past the first year's on their way to class many yelled "get out while you still can!" "don't do it.. I made a mistake!" "med school is hard!!" Nothing specifically about MCG... just about medical school in general, but not appropriate on interview day!

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

Students practice sticking NG tubes down each other's noses. Did not know that!

What are your general comments?

Although I don't feel that the interviews went particularly well for me, I have had a VERY positive experience when I previously interviewed.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
