What are your general comments?

"My experience was great, I was impressed with everything LECOM has to offer. The faculty seems great and very caring. My interviewers were great too, if you get Dr. Evans and Mrs. Latimer as your interviewers, make them laugh and you'll be fine. I was completely myself (funny) and they seemed to eat it up. Most people are so up tight during their interviews that they dont give themselves a chance. Try to make it as casually conversational as you can. Answer the questions properly but try to have a story to go along with it that lets them get to know the real you better! This interview day kept LECOM as my top choice for med school. I received my acceptance to the Bradenton campus 2 days ago and very graciously accepted the offer as soon as I could. And that is without even seeing the campus yet or the surrounding towns in Florida. True, I am a little skeptical about this, so if anybody out there has any information that could help me out (FL housing info, town info, or anything else)... please let me know. Good luck to all the applicants and hopefully we'll see each other in Florida this September." Report Response
