How did you prepare for the interview?

"I practiced with a friend who was also interviewing, going through typical questions and critiquing each other. I also did a mock interview in the career center. They also asked typical medical school questions, and threw in a few curveballs as well. Although the majority of questions they asked were not a part of the actual interview, sitting down with a panel of strangers, in a suit, and formulating the best possible answers is an excellent way to prepare for the atmosphere of the real thing. They gave me good, honest feedback which gave me a lot of confidence going in to the real thing. When I arrived on interview day, I was at ease because I was already familiar with the environment of the interview." Report Response

What impressed you positively?
