"I arrived at 930am and was the 4th person there. They have you wait in the main hallway (there's only one) of the medical school right outside the admissions office. Between 930 and 10, 4 students came up to me and started talking to me about the school... all VERY positive. The initial presentation and standardized patient were a little drawn out, but not too bad. The tour was given by students with about 4 applicants per group. They were enthusiastic, and one was very knowledegeable. We saw everything you would expect to see including the anatomy lab with cadaver display. If you interview on a wednesday, ask them to quickly walk you thru the children's hospital, it was very impressive. Financial aid and student life presentations were presented at lunch. The interview itself was definitely good/bad cop routine. I immediately knew from the questions which one of the interviewers was the adcom member and had access to my file. The adcom member seems to be the good cop for most people. The questions built on one another, i.e. give us your strengths and weaknesses... how would you use such and such strength to benefit your patient care. If nothing else, stick to your guns. They want confidence in the face of difficult situations, not wishy-washyiness. Just answer the questions and dont be afraid to say " Report Response
