Just after you get them situated in an exam room, an administrator comes to you and says that they are illegal immigrants, have no insurance, your clinic has met its quota of medicaid and medicare patients for the month and you can't afford to treat the boy.

"The day started with the tour, ladies you'll want to wear comfortable shoes because it lasted about an hour (of nearly non-stop brisk walking)! Then there were presentations by faculty, admissions, and financial aid. Next was lunch with a couple of current students who were awesome and completely forthcoming about how to survive our interviews and life on in medical school. The actual interviews themselves apparently vary greatly depending on who interviews you. My interview was pretty low-key and conversational with only one ethics question and one policy question. There was another person though that got totally grilled, her judgement got questioned, and they even made her role-play! Lastly, for those of you who have heard of the infamous cookie platter, fear not! It has been abolished! They apparently got rid of it because it was stressing people out..." Report Response
