"How did you come to choose your (humanities) major, and how did that lead to your post-graduate work?" Report Response | I was asked this question too
"I see you have done a lot of research. What would you say is the difference between your older research and your most recent work?" Report Response | I was asked this question too
"Choose among these 3 questions: 1. What is the most important trait for an osteopathic doctor and why? 2. How will health care reform benefit osteopathic medicine? 3. If you could have lunch with one person, living or dead, who would it be and why?" Report Response | I was asked this question too
"Pile of cards, face down, each with an emotion written on them (anger, fear, joy, etc.). Interviewees in the group each choose one card and must explain to the interviewers a time in which they felt that emotion." Report Response | I was asked this question too
""What is the difference between your x experience and your y experience?" This was difficult because the interviewer misinterpreted my previous research experiences to be different from each other when really it was all the same. I had to correct him and say "Actually, all of my work involved bla bla bla, but the real difference was what I learned, etc." It's good to prepare yourself in thinking about the ways in which your experiences were different from each other-- I didn't expect that kind of question." Report Response | I was asked this question too
"SDN forums, reading school mission statements, reviewing all application materials I sent (AACOMAS, essays), speaking out loud to myself about certain experiences, why I want to be a doctor, etc." Report Response
"Nice location, sounds like they have a great global health curriculum for DO/MPH students, which is what I'm interested in. Facilities technologically advanced." Report Response
"Although technologically advanced, minimal amount of facilities. Campus still in development. Ambiguity about clinical rotations and how they are organized." Report Response
"That no one else would be wearing tennis shoes for the tour." Report Response
"I would go here for the location and for the global health program but honestly, it seems like Touro, Mare Island would be a good fit for those who need to stay in the area (one woman in my interview group had a kid and lived nearby, for example) and/or just need the degree. For others who want a challenge and excellent clinical rotations, a lot of guidance and extensive preparation, I think there are better schools." Report Response
