💬 Interview Questions
What is one of the specific questions they asked you?
The interviewer pulled a specific experience from my AMCAS essay and asked me to expand on it
What was the most interesting question?
If you were an interviewer for a medical school, what kind of questions would you ask an applicant?
What was the most difficult question?
Standard ethical questions about what you would do if you caught someone cheating/lying/etc. I think a lot of students have trouble with the healthcare issues question though because it seemed like a "gotcha" question to analyze how much an interviewee knows about the state of healthcare

The friendliness of the admissions staff and all of the students. The program itself
What impressed you negatively?
Location, location, location. Also, it seemed like the school itself was cramped as they had just opened up a pharm school and parking had become an issue
What did you wish you had known ahead of time?
How informal/conversational the interviews would be
What are your general comments?
The school impressed me a lot more than what I thought it would. Def considering going here after the tour. The only downside is the location of the campus is kind of iffy (area surrounding campus seems pretty rundown) and lake effect winters suck if you're used to a warm climate
Success!
