No responses

What impressed you negatively?

Started with video recording of presentation, someone couldn’t find 15-20 minutes of their day to welcome us, I liken any other Interview I have attended

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

No responses

What are your general comments?

Bad location, old facilities, super big class size, seems like no one really is super proud they go there

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?

Why make us write another essay? Don’t schedule four applicants with the same interviewer back to back, if he runs late to begin with and runs over time, the last applicant is set back over an hour and a half. It really means a lot to have an actual person welcome the applicants who visit the medical school campus, the video was a complete turn off, and started the day on the wrong foot.
