How did you prepare for the interview?

Talked to students at Wayne. Read this web site.

What impressed you positively?

Friendly staff and students. Proximity to hospitals. Only medical school in Detroit.

What impressed you negatively?

Very short visit. Counting the hour interview I was on campus for only about 3 hours. Just showed up, interviewed, had the tour and left. Not much information on Detroit, where to live, student life, curriculum, etc.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

Nothing.

What are your general comments?

The interviewer just looked over my AMCAS application and asked questions from my responses about classes, work experience, essays, etc. No "tough" questions about ethical questions or things like that. Very informal and relaxed. I wish they would have had more "pomp and circumstance" around the interview. Detroit is not an attractive city for most people (compared to Chicago or Philadelphia) and I think Wayne should have had a presentation about the opportunities that Detroit has to offer because they aren't very apparent. In other words they should have tried to sell their school more.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
