"The admissions staff, the other interviewees, and the 1st year student. My credit card wasn't working in the ATM taht day. The other interviewees were actually going to give me the money to take a taxi! Then one of the admissions staff gave me money and called a ride for me. I didn't get to go on the tour, but the tour guide was friendly when I ate lunch with her." Report Response

"That the ATM wasn't going to work and that I needed to bring more cash. Also, I flew in and I left my bags at the hotel b/c I thought it would be wierd to bring my stuff. Then I had to go get it all later. Apparently it is normal for interviewees to bring their bags to the the interview." Report Response
"I'm from Washington State, so I knew that my chances of acceptance were pretty slim even with a pretty good GPA and MCAT score. I interviewed at the University of Washington and it was extremely tough. I expected the same at this school, but they didn't even ask me why I wanted to be a doctor or why I wanted to go to NJMS. We talked about 50% about my profile and the rest of the time was spent discussing Bush and Kerry at length. Before I knew it, the interview was over. There were very few questions, so I was a little worried b/c I couldn't understand how she could have learned much about me from such an informal interview. I ranked my stress level at 5, but all of my stress was what I put on myself. I was accepted 10 days later. It just goes to show that maybe you did better than you thought. To the students that interviewed with me: Good Luck. If you made half as good an impression on the interviewers as you did on me, you won't have any trouble getting in." Report Response
