"After my interviewer assured me that he had read my application, he informed me that he had forgotten the summary he had written up of my application at his house. So he just winged the interview, asking very random questions, and not asking anything relevant to the study of medicine. He never asked me any of the following: what my family members do for a living, why I wanted to go into medicine, why I wanted to go to UMDNJ-NJMS." Report Response
