read through my application, SDN and Wayne website

What impressed you positively?

The attitude of the students. They seemed very friendly and the students who gave the tour were very candid.

What impressed you negatively?

Bad weather...also, no real forum to ask questions about the school...left there with a lot of questions

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

that my interviewer was basically going to go down the list of my ECs and ask questions for the firt 20 minutes.

What are your general comments?

Overall, it was a good experience. Very low stress interview, which was very conversational. My interviewer was a clinician and not directly involved with medical education, so couldn't answer some of my questions regarding specifics about the curriculum. Other than that I enjoyed it.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
