"Read SDN, read AMCAS app, looked up a lot of information about Pittsburgh so i could justify why I would like to live there." Report Response
"EVERYTHING! Simulation lab is fabulous. Curriculum incorporates a substantial amount of PBL which really appeals to me. Massive hospital system all located within a couple of miles. Students seem happy and, well, quite normal. Other applicants were also incredibly friendly and pretty cool. I am in love with pitt." Report Response
"The interviews were rather fast paced. You go to studnet then faculty than admissions officer one after another. I had no time to relax or even get a drink! By the end of the 2.5 hours, I was pretty worn out." Report Response
"I didn't realize the medical school doesn't have its own building, it is actually located in a building that is part of and connected to all of the hospitals. You literally walk through the hospitals to get to the admissions office and throughout the whole tour. Definitely not the school for someone who is looking for a campus." Report Response
"8am weclome, then two hour tour, with a lot of time spent in awesome simulation lab. Financial aid and curriculum talks are pretty standard, then lunch with the studnets, which is quite informative. Three interviews: hour with student, hour with staff, 10-15 with admissions officer. None of them have your grades/MCATs. the interviews are very focused on getting to know you as a person and your goals/motivations. Really know yourself, your desires, and why you applied to pitt. you will be asked the same questions by all three interviewers." Report Response
