"I was asked how I would deal with a patient who needed a surgery but didn't have insurance... when I said that, if the case was life threatening, I would do everything possible (i.e. look for charity or corporate sponsors), the interview asked how I would deal with the global strain on tax payers by taking on a case like this... I think I answered okay though." Report Response | I was asked this question too

"This was my first interview. I was expecting to run into traffic and to have problems parking, but I found a parking space right away and didn't hit any traffic. I ended up getting there really early, but the admissions staff seemed cool with it. Before myinterview, I waited in a room next to the admissions office, then I met my interviewer. She was exceptionally friendly and had looked over my file. It was a very conversational atmosphere; she asked about my research and a few of my organizations. She spent most of the interview pitching the school to me, which made me feel like they wanted me to matriculate there (so it definitely took some pressure off). After the interview, my interviewer took me to a poster session for the Summer Student Research Program that NJMS has each summer (I guess I was lucky to come on that day). After the poster session, I got a tour with two 2nd year students and got to see the anatomy lab (cadavers!) and the hospital. The students were really open and honest and really seemed to like the school. Definitely very friendly. Overall, great first interview experience." Report Response
