What was the most difficult question?

"The "tell me about yourself" question is so vague that I have trouble answering it, specifically knowing what details to include. However, I was asked a question regarding LECOM's dress code that went something like this: "A third year medical student's preceptor evaluated them in their clinical rotations, emphasizing that they were excellent in their work, but did not dress professionally, thus failing to adhere to the dress code. Should this student be punished?"" Report Response | I was asked this question too

How did you prepare for the interview?

"I googled practice interview questions and watched several YouTube videos for how to go about answering them. I wrote down key components I wanted to include in each practice question... well honestly, I only had time to focus on getting down the details I wanted to include in the more common interview questions, including, "Tell me about yourself.", "Why medicine?", "Why osteopathic medicine/D.O.?", "Why us (LECOM)?", "Explain your greatest strength/weakness."" Report Response

What impressed you positively?

No Response

What impressed you negatively?

"It was very CASPER-part2 and did not feel like they were interested in getting to know me, since they did not have any member of their staff interact with applicants invited for interviews. It felt like I was just a number honestly and did not do anything for me in terms of getting to know the professors and faculty at the school or the school itself. It was a very, obvious one-sided type of experience." Report Response

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

"I mean, the questions... lol... but it wasn't that bad. It helped that I did the CASPER before this interview because that honestly prepared me fairly well." Report Response
