What is one of the specific questions they asked you?

Strengths and weaknesses

What was the most interesting question?

Give an example of why you consider yourself a strong leader.

What was the most difficult question?

Why I wanted to quit the successful business I run now, in order to persue a career in medicine?

What impressed you positively?

The staff was wonderful! Very nice and open to answering any questions we had. I interviewed for the Bradenton campus and I was HIGHLY impressed by all the faculty and students I met on my visit. It is an amazing school in a beautiful new building and it was very exciting!

What impressed you negatively?

Nothing really. There was a period during the interview, which lasted from 9am until 1pm, where all of the students being interviewed had to wait for everyone to finish interviewing. I went first around 9:30am, so I sat around talking with other students until 1pm. Although, we did tour the school and talk to med students and staff, it just wasn't very organized. On the up side, I talked with several other interviewee's and now we are friends and keep in touch via email!

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

Nothing really.
