What was the most interesting question?

"Perhaps not the most interesting (the interviewer asked me a total of 3 questions) but the question that most caught my attention was whether or not I would be interested in the MPH Program at SGU. " Report Response | I was asked this question too

What was the most difficult question?

"''Would you be interested in the MPH Program at SGU?'' I have been accepted into a good MBS/MPH program in the states, so doing my MPH at SGU is worthless. I didn't know what to say but after getting my rejection from the med school/acceptance into MPH Program today, I wish I was more vehement in letting the interviewer know that I would not be interested in their program." Report Response | I was asked this question too

How did you prepare for the interview?

"Read SDN, rehearsed basic questions" Report Response

What impressed you positively?

"The interviewer was an alumni of SGU and is now a pathologist working for the state; I assume that shows that hard work can overcome the stigma of being an FMG enough to get a job like that." Report Response

What impressed you negatively?

"The interviewer was rushing things - she actually started packing up as I was asking her a question. It was at the end of the day and she admitted that she was in a rush to meet her sister for dinner. She asked me 4 questions: 1)did you take Bio II and Physics II (she had my transcript) 2) How will you pay for SGU 3) Where else have you applied/been accepted? 4)Would you be interested in the MPH Program? " Report Response

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

"I wish I had known of the MPH Program so I could have summoned up enough courage to say flat out that such a program is not worth it to me." Report Response

What are your general comments?

"Don't be stressed - I tend to overprepare and overstress. They are mainly interested in your money and will do whatever it takes to try to reel you in." Report Response
