How did you prepare for the interview?

"I read SDN feedback and mentally went over answers to what I expected to be asked. Was not asked any of those questions. " Report Response

What impressed you positively?

"They made us very comfortable and gave us every opportunity to ask questions which they answered thoroughly. I liked that there is not competition between the students (class rankings are confidential to students) and that MCG has an excellent reputation for producing high quality clinicians. They do not weed-out, but work to help all 190 students to finish in four years." Report Response

What impressed you negatively?

"The tour was good except that they avoided showing us any of the classroom space. It's good to accentuate the positive but I don't think they should hide something they perceive as negative. They did tell us that the main lecture halls will be renovated for the next years class (which is positive). " Report Response

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

"Nothing except that I would have thought of more questions to ask ahead of time. At lunch with the Dean of Admissions they ask if you have any questions." Report Response

What are your general comments?

"They will give you a schedule for the interview day in the invitation email. The day starts at 8:30 AM and ends whenever you finish your second interview (you are free to leave straight from there). Staff will escort you to your interviews so there is no need to worry about getting lost, but you do have to find your way back to the office afterward. My first interview went very well and was not difficult at all. He asked me questions that you might expect from a closed file interview (basically information that is in the app file). I didn't mind as it made the interview very low stress. My second interview was much different as he didn't ask me many questions but rather continually asked me if I had any questions for him even after I had asked several. Then he ended it. I didn't know what to think of that." Report Response
