What are your general comments?
very enjoyable, the interaction with the faculty and students was above par. The interview was informative and they seem to like that I had prepared some detailed questions in advance and that I was aware of the overall program, history of osteopathic medicine and philosophies of Dr. A.T. Still.
💬 Interview Process
What is one of the specific questions they asked you?
Who are you, tell us about yourself in your own words.
What was the most interesting question?
How has your life experiences led you to become an osteopathic physician? And why osteopathy instead of allopathic medicine?
How did you prepare for the interview?
This site, and the school website.
What was the most difficult question?
none, they were all relative and should be expected in an interview. Very casual but precise.
What impressed you positively?
The level of professionalism with the students and interviewing faculty. Pikeville takes great pride in their school, faculty and students. Team work was obvious and they wanted to know if you were a team player. Also, I was notified by the dean within three days of my acceptance, so that was a nice Christmas gift in advance!
What impressed you negatively?
Nothing, Pikeville is a great little town in a beautiful part of the state, and will allow students to devote all their time to a medical education. I love the outdoors and all they offer, so it will be a great area for me and my family.
What did you wish you had known ahead of time?
Nothing, I visited the school on my own earlier in the year and have researched the school and town over the past three years. I wanted to go to Pikeville from day one, and that is where I'm going.
