How did you prepare for the interview?

SDN, KCOM website, primary and secondary applications

What impressed you positively?

The friendliness of the staff and students as well as their support and efforts to make you succeed in med school. You also automatically get $3000 towards tuition if you score 27 or higher on your MCAT.

What impressed you negatively?

Small town....although everyone whines about this fact, it just doesn't hit you unitl you're actually there, especially of you're from a big city.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

Make reservations at the hotel you want to stay at prior to arrival. The Holiday Inn was booked solid due to hunting season!

What are your general comments?

The interviews are at the beginning of the day, which makes the tour more enjoyable. You also get a little card of facts on the people you will be interviewing with. However, my first interviewer was horrible in the fact that he kept attacking my application and putting my answers to his questions into different contexts. He made me feel as though I didn't deserve the interview. The second interview was more conversational. He basically wanted to get to know me to see if I would fit into the student body and vice versa. They don't leave you alone for one second of the day, which makes for a very long day. Overall, the school is impressive and the students are very happy with the education they receive. It is now one of my top choices.
