How did you prepare for the interview?

Read interview feedback, checked out the school's website, talked with a D.O. acquaintance

Report Response | I was asked this too

What impressed you positively?

The students seemed happy. They felt that the faculty was there to *teach* rather than do research or other "stuff".

Report Response | I was asked this too

What impressed you negatively?

Not much research going on, but I think the school has a philosophy skewed more toward producing clinical physicians rather than scientific physicians.

Report Response | I was asked this too

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

The website is very, very out of date. The library really isn't that bad, plus they've got a quiet study hall full of cubicals. The overall attitude of the school seemed to be a bit more "sink or swim" than I was expecting.

Report Response | I was asked this too

What are your general comments?

The first interview was conversational, the second was a bit more confrontational. Overall, I think they balanced each other out. There was nothing on ethics, just questions that were aimed to make you talk about yourself. The director of admissions gave us the opportunity at the end to make sure our files were complete, which helped me because I got to give him an answer for something that the interviewers may not have been able to convey. The school itself seems to be undergoing a lot of renovations. The campus is fairly small, but the facilities are adequate. The students seem to have made the decision to attend for reasons other than "I didn't get in anywhere else".
