How did you prepare for the interview?

sdn interview feedback, reviewed amcas app, wrote out thoughts to some common questions

What impressed you positively?

very innovative curriculum, the extent that the faculty take an interest in the students (they really want you to thrive as a medical student)

What impressed you negatively?

it's pretty pricey, chinatown's not the greatest area, but it's ok.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

the way the interviews are structured...

What are your general comments?

the day is long, but very informative...presentations all morning, then lunch, then from 1-5PM, you basically sit in a room with all the other interviewees and the interviewers just call out names. you have no idea when they're going to call your name. could easily catch you offguard. after that, there's an optional tour and that's it. i definitely enjoyed my experience at tufts and would love to go there if accepted. it has definitely become one of my top choices.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
