💬 Interview Process

What is one of the specific questions they asked you?

Why OSU?

What was the most interesting question?

What are your thoughts about end-of-life issues?

How did you prepare for the interview?

Perused all my application materials(primary, secondary, etc.) and read up some interview questions. Also combed the OSU website to find out more about the school. Staying with a student host was by far the most helpful though.

What was the most difficult question?

What if you find your peer cheating, what would you do?

What impressed you positively?

Very friendly students, incredible staff and faculty, extremely dedicated to teaching, abundance of clinical and research opportunities, cheap living expenses, and good transportation system(if you have a car, that is)

What impressed you negatively?

The name tag kept falling off! Seriously though, OSU has so much in terms of facilities, but the tour was only about half an hour long so we got to see very little of it.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

Columbus apparently has little to no public transportation, had to get a cab which cost like 30 dollars for 7ish miles.
