"WWAMI loans begin to gain interest year one after med school and there is only 1 residency program in my home state, so essentially I won't be able to even consider repaying my home state loan until after residency" Report Response
"I prepared really well, apparent by my knowing several health statistics asked and holding my own on the ethics questions; however, walking out I was unsure as to how it went. Sometimes I didn't have an answer to something, but many times they are looking at HOW you react and process things not WHAT you say. It was very nerve-wracking, but I remained calm and overall the interviewers are friendly." Report Response
