✅ Interview Preparation and Impressions

No responses

How is the responsiveness of the admissions office?

No responses

How did you prepare for the interview?

Mainly by going over my AMCAS application.

What impressed you positively?

The tools available over the internet, with class notes, questions, and videos. Also, the patient simulators appeared to be a good idea to practice some basic procedures without the pressure of having to work on an actual person.

What impressed you negatively?

That very few students go to class, some actually learn all of their material at home over the computer. I don't know if it will actually affect the quality of education, but some classes are actually taken with the dental and pharmacy students.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

The directions to the parking lot are not clear. You can not turn in off of the road, instead you have to weave around to get to the other side of the lot to enter.

What are your general comments?

I came into this interview not expecting very much. It is still not my top choice, but I am slightly more comfortable with the school overall. Overall, the day was pretty disorganized, with people coming in occasionally to talk to you. Having to arrive at 8 and not interviewing to 11:30 also increases the stress level dramatically. Also, I would have liked to have spoken to some 3rd or 4th year medical students in order to get a better idea of the school and to see more of the hospital, which the first year students could not do.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
