I didn't specifically prepare for this interview. I had been to several interviews before this and just had some frameworks for answers that I was going to use.
What was the most difficult question?
If one of those 10 friends raised their hand and said ".. but .." , what would that "but" be?
What impressed you positively?
Very small school, very friendly admissions staff.
What impressed you negatively?
The school seems to be much less developed than many other schools. The departments seem to have fewer staff and fewer opportunities to gain experience. The population out there is very homogeneous. They're behind in their use of technology for the curriculum and inside the hospital.
What did you wish you had known ahead of time?
I apparently didn't take good directions to the school. What I had with me said the road it was on was Memorial (which my GPS didn't recognize), but it was really Ashe.
