How did you prepare for the interview?

Read the interview feedback on this site, talked to medical students both past and present, had prepared answers for questions that could be asked.

Report Response | I was asked this too

What impressed you negatively?

The building was kept very hot during our visit, and our tour of the medical school facilities was much shorter (30 minutes) than I expected.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

Your score Toledo Chemistry Exam, which is administered on site, does not count towards your admission criteria. It is only used to determine whether or not you have to take Chem 211 the summer prior to entering UMKC if you are accepted.

What are your general comments?

Both interviews were not as bad as other sites, such as the Princeton Review, had made me believe they would be. Unlike most medical schools, there is no "bad guy" interviewer who puts you in an uncomfortable position to see how you react under pressure. The first interview with the Phd is mostly about your experiences and skills in the school and the community. The second interview, which is with an MD, asked me questions more geared towards being a doctor, such as handling controversial issues (abortion, etc.), and health insurance. By far, the second interview (the one with the MD) is much more relaxing and enjoyable.
