⭐ Overall Impressions

How did the interview impress you?

Positively 🙂

What was the stress level of the interview?

2 out of 10
0 = Low Stress, 10 = High Stress

What are your general comments?

Excellent experience, the student and faculty member that interviewed me were very nice, and made the interview experience non-stressful.
💬 Interview Process

What is one of the specific questions they asked you?

Specifics on my current job, overseas experience.. they do really just want to get to know who you are and what you've been up to.

What was the most interesting question?

Where do you see yourself in ten years? (that's always a tough one, hopefully as a doctor, if you let me in!)

How did you prepare for the interview?

read their website, was fortunate enough to talk with an alumni, who's a second year student

What was the most difficult question?

If you had to decide between UNECOM and an MD program or another school, how would you decide? (I always stick with honesty is the best policy on that one, if atmosphere, tuition, or program specifics is important to you, then tell them that, I found the interviewers to be very understanding, they're just people too...)

What impressed you positively?

definitely the students, and the environment. I was about an hour early, and a few of the MSII's just came over and started talking, they were very friendly, and the students seemed genuinely happy there.

What impressed you negatively?

not much, the facilities are nice, and biddeford is right on the water, cost is probably my personal biggest drawback.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

nothing, except that it really was laid back, and if you have any questions all the students/faculty were more than happy to answer!
