💬 Interview Process
What was the most interesting question?
Why did you switch your major? What specifically did you not like about it?
How did you prepare for the interview?
reviewed the school's web page, looked over informational packets, studentdoctor.net etc.
What was the most difficult question?
How will you balance your family with your career as a physician?
What impressed you positively?
My interviewer was an amazingly nice man. He really put me at ease, and it was obvious that he really knew my application. There are many positive aspects to an inner city education; you get to see a wide scope of trauma, the various stages of disease and gun shot wounds.
What impressed you negatively?
Newark doesn't seem like the kind of a place that I want to come back from a bar to. Although, I don't think I'll have too much time for partying in med school.
What did you wish you had known ahead of time?
Everybody says that parking is horrible. However, if you come at 7AM you'll have no problems. I just chilled at the Dunkin Donuts across the street and did some final preparations before going in to the Interview.
