"So, tell me a little bit about yourself." Report Response | I was asked this question too
"What other schools did you apply to? (And follow-up: Where do you rank these schools in terms of your interest?)" Report Response | I was asked this question too
"Do you have an idea about cost? How much will it cost you to come here?" Report Response | I was asked this question too
"Would you ever be able to bleed Scarlet and Gray? (I'm a Gator, so there's a bit of a conflict of interest!)" Report Response | I was asked this question too
"Is there anything else you'd like us to know that isn't evident in your application? (Not necessarily a hard question, but it caught me off guard at the end of the interview and I hadn't prepared for it!)" Report Response | I was asked this question too
"I read all the previous interview feedbacks on Student Doctor Network, read up on some current issues, read all about zoonotic diseases (they asked about them!), practiced interviews with my friends, re-read my application/resume/essays (they asked specific things from my application), and checked out the Ohio State and AVMA websites." Report Response
"The vet students that did the Q&A and led the tours were super-enthusiastic and everyone there couldn't stop saying awesome things about Ohio State and how much they loved it." Report Response
"Having to wait 3 1/2 hours between lunch and my interview. It didn't end up being that bad though; a lot of us sat in the lounge area and chatted." Report Response
"There were things that I didn't know about OSU, but nothing really that I wish I'd known. I was surprised at how urban the campus is, and at some of the qualifications to get Ohio residency. Overall I feel that I was very well-prepared." Report Response
"The best thing to do for this interview is relax. My interviewers were very nice, and the whole thing was conversational. Everyone said all morning that the interviewers are just trying to get to know you as a person, and I genuinely felt like they were. Know some stuff about current events, and a lot about veterinary medicine in general (stuff you should probably know anyway if you're this far along in pursuing vetmed as a career), and be able to describe many facets of your personality. Also, if you feel you did well, stick around for a few minutes afterward. They told me I was accepted 15 minutes after my interview!" Report Response
