How did you prepare for the interview?

knowing general ethics and just being myself

What impressed you positively?

facility, faculty, curriculum, opportunities for students. School cares about the students and is trying very hard to be successful in the near future. The state is also very focused on allocating to the school to build its reputation since it is the 2nd medical school in Indy after IU. It's also 10 mins away from main city

What impressed you negatively?

The student panel was a little bias. They refused to talk about other schools they interviewed at and gave me the impression that they were specifically told to sell the school and not be realistic with interviewees. Also, most students ended up in primary care in match.
