💬 Interview Process
What is one of the specific questions they asked you?
Nice tie. Did you buy it esp? (crimson colors) Then he suggested I get a couple of other ones when i go to UNC and Columbia....(all in good humor, he knew the school i was interviewing at for Dental SChool)
What was the most interesting question?
If I were to ask your father what are you three best and worst qualities what would he say?
How did you prepare for the interview?
I relaxed, read the material and talked to a few friends at "ha-vayrd"
What was the most difficult question?
same as above. I couldn't think of a third. But it was alright, he understood being on the spot.
What impressed you positively?
What didn't?? HMS is palacial. I do not believe in the Treasury Department anymore, I believe money was being printed in the basement of HMS. No wonder Harvard hasn't the largest endowment (6 billion i hear)
What impressed you negatively?
Nothing about Harvard, but traffic and parking. But keep in mind the T is there so not a bother really. Awesome experience
What did you wish you had known ahead of time?
Wish i had spent longer in boston. Everyone i talked with was incredibly cool. Went a had a drink and got to know them before i left, but they were the type of student who know their stuff without being stuffy. Pretty unusual for an Ivy (Exception was PENN)
