What impressed you positively?

"The facilities and the happiness of the students are the two most impressive facets of the Yale interview process. Their new lecture hall building, complete with state-of-the-art anatomy labs are extremely exciting as well. " Report Response

What impressed you negatively?

"I would say the cliche "New Haven", but it's really not as bad as everyone makes it out to be. Sure, it's not ideal, but with so many shops downtown, it's not unbearable. There's quite little to comment upon in terms of negative impressions with the exception that they interview around 800 students and accept 200, so it leaves you quite worried about gaining an acceptance offer. One true negative impression about the interview process is that they do not show you the inside of the hospital facilities, something that, although I was prepared to not be shown given the feedback here, was still disappointing. " Report Response

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

"I did quite a bit of research into the school, so I found few surprises during my visit. " Report Response

What are your general comments?

"If you're a self-motivated learner, Yale is your dream school. The people, facilities and concept of the Yale system make this school quite desirable for one to gain admission. My interview experience was quite laid-back, with both my student and faculty interviewers asking fairly standard questions and allowing me a great deal of time to formulate my answers. The students seem genuinely satisfied with their Yale experience, and seem to appreciate the Yale System to its fullest. All in all, the interview is low stress. The real stress is wondering whether you'll be one of the 600 rejected post-interview!" Report Response
