How did you prepare for the interview?

I looked at this site, wrote down interview questions, typed up answers to them, and read the answers over a few times.

What impressed you positively?

The interviewers were pretty laid back. the atmosphere is not very competitive. also, the classrooms are wired, lectures are taped and can be found on cd-rom as well.

What impressed you negatively?

the size of the lecture halls, classrooms, and buildings. the buildings don't really look very modern. also, the study areas are very small. i don't know if this is because i'm used to attending a big school, but i didn't feel comfortable in such a small school. what's even more unappealing is that despite the size of the school, the entering class is huge. the cafeteria is teeny, the gym is pathetic, and they've got 5 (i repeat 5) microscopes for students to use for anatomy class.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

i wish i had know how small the school was beforehand. also, i wish i had known that the directions provided in the mail SUCK. they're kinda confusing; you may wanna check out mapquest before your interview.

What are your general comments?

the interview was really laid back. there are two interviewers who interview you individually. i was first interviewed by an anatomy professor who was EXTREMELY cool. he was lying back in his chair with his hands behind his head. he also had a pretty good sense of humor. after my first interview, i had about 30 minute wait before my next one, with a physician. the physician seemed a bit more serious, but his interview was extremely short. he seemed to have looked at my accomas application more than the anatomy prof. after my interviews, i had to wait till the rest of the interviewees completed theirs as well. we then were given a brief tour of the campus and had lunch.
