How did you prepare for the interview?

"Not much, this was my fourth so the stress level was low. It also helped that I live next to the school so at least the area was familiar." Report Response

What impressed you positively?

"Almost everything... EVERYone is very nice, helpful, and likes to have fun while at the same time being very professional. My interviewers were FANTASTIC. I felt like I had made two friends at the end of it all and yet they were still asked the most difficult probing questions I have ever had to answer. The facilities while not fantastic were good where it counted (ie labs looked brand spanking new with 30'' plasma tvs but the hallway outside looked like it was falling apart). Also, the clinical experience here is great. They have everything within the teaching hospital short of a burn center." Report Response

What impressed you negatively?

"Very little. NO WIRELESS INTERNET!?! How will I live!?! (desktops are abound though) Also, very high tuition and Fin Aid considers parents income for need based scholarships. One interviewer is horribly mean...see other peoples posts. I was lucky enough to not get him." Report Response
