What can you contribute to our school?

Report Response | I was asked this too

Would you like a glass of water? (I refused since I didn't want them to reject me based on my lack of coordination, plus, I drank the water in the waiting room right before I walked into the conference room). Why do you want to be a DO?

Report Response | I was asked this too

If you had a patient who you had been friends with for a long amount of time, and he passed out in front of you because of an amphetamine overdose, would you report him to authorities?

How did you prepare for the interview?

I am obssessive compulsive and printed out ALL of the interview questions from this website. I also spoke to a recent AZCOM graduate in order to find out more specific information about the school. I forgot to review my personal statement and application. I also skimmed an ethics book that had summaries of recent bioethical issues.

Report Response | I was asked this too

What impressed you positively?

The student ambassadors were extremely friendly and approachable. The campus and facilities were nice. I especially loved the anatomy lab. They had all of these flat screen tv's along with a moveable camera that could zoom in on parts of the cadavers. High tech! Wow! The admissions staff and interviewers put me at ease instantly.

Report Response | I was asked this too

What impressed you negatively?

The fact that the rotations are preceptor based and not done in teaching hospitals. I am assuming this is because they are a new school and are working on establishing their reputation and rapport with local hospitals.

Report Response | I was asked this too

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

The types of rotations available.

Report Response | I was asked this too

Don't forget to have at least two to three school-specific questions since they will expect for you to have questions for them.
