How did you prepare for the interview?

A good night's sleep...

What impressed you positively?

Dr. Hunt's presentation was informative. The clinical opportunities at UW are unbeatable with plenty of patient interraction within the first two years. The facilities are quite nice away from where the tour went.

What impressed you negatively?

I only met a couple students. The tour should be given by current students to make it useful. Every interview was way behind schedule.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

WA state residents can get "WWAMI"ied and be stuck in Pullman for a full, painful year.

What are your general comments?

The committee interview was fairly challenging. Although I felt the interview had no flow, i was interrupted several times, and the questions seemed scripted and trite, the interviewers were not trying to be antagonistic or mean-spirited. Be prepared to have your values challenged and your motivations questioned but do not panic. "I dont know" is always a valid answer.
