What impressed you positively?

"The people. Everyone was friendly - admissions staff, students, and interviewers. One student approached me as I was walking between interviews, and actually stopped to introduce himself, shake my hand, ask where I was from. Everyone was giving interview tips, etc on the tour. Lunch with the students was relatively informal and they were eager to answer all of our questions. My first interviewer was incredibly friendly, and even gave me his email address so that I could come back to shadow him. My second interviewer was a little tough at first but when it came time to ask him questions, he warmed up and we ended up chatting the interview into the hour mark." Report Response

What impressed you negatively?

"It was hard to know where to go. They give a sheet with your schedule - Your interviews are listed with a building and a room number but they don't tell you how to get there. My second interviewer's office was behind a double set of doors, and I never would have found it if I hadn't have met someone in the hall to help me. The interview wasn't even in his office - We ended up in a really small and hot room on a different floor entirely. Just seemed a little unorganized." Report Response

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

"I went to an open house beforehand, so nothing really here. " Report Response

What are your general comments?

"It was more relaxed than I thought it would be, until my second interview. Lunch was really yummy. The students who took us to lunch and on our interview were really friendly. The gross anatomy lab is really cool. Both of my interviews were in the afternoon so by that time I was relaxed. The first interviewer asked me about a lot of stuff in my file, but the second didn't. The first interviewer was a DO, and the second a PhD. Be prepared for anything." Report Response
