⭐ Overall Impressions

How did the interview impress you?

Positively 🙂

What was the stress level of the interview?

5 out of 10
0 = Low Stress, 10 = High Stress

What are your general comments?

The general "blah" feel of the tour and presentations is countered by my pleasant interview and the good reputation that I know that this school has. It's still high on my list - I just expected to come away more excited than I was. They could use a few better salespeople in the adm. office.
💬 Interview Process

What is one of the specific questions they asked you?

What made you decide to leave engineering?

What was the most interesting question?

What do you consider your biggest weakness?

How did you prepare for the interview?

OSU's website, my app and essays

What was the most difficult question?

What is an ethical situation in medicine that has intrigued you?

What impressed you positively?

General "good" feeling of all that I met about the school. Very close bond between school and city.

What impressed you negatively?

Something about the ambiance of the setting. OSU's campus is a city. Could be the construction, but the lack of trees and general "feeling" around medical buildings and hospitals I felt was lacking.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

Had the most lax tour guides ever. As a 26 year old, was turned off by the generally blah and immaturity of these two students who could end up being my academic seniors! Would have arranged for a more upbeat tour guide.
