"(interviews are semi-open file: no access to GPA/MCAT) Why medicine?/ Why Loyola?/ Have you thought about other career choices?" Report Response | I was asked this question too
"My first interviewer was a PhD, so he focused primarily on asking about one research experience and picked specific community outreach experiences." Report Response | I was asked this question too
"My second interviewer was a MD, so he focused on my motivations for medicine and family life." Report Response | I was asked this question too
"What do your parents think about you going into medicine in light of the current healthcare reform?" Report Response | I was asked this question too
"Tell me about a current ethical problem in healthcare. I don't think I answered this one very well..." Report Response | I was asked this question too
"Read SDN and tons of 'doctor' books including one on understanding health policy; knew my primary and secondary... but I think I could have used a little more prep to make my answers more specific." Report Response
"Friendliness of everybody: admissions office staff, chairman and dean of admissions, tour guide, interviewers, MS1's, MS2's; clean, fresh, and new hospital facilities- especially the very cute children's ward, and of course, the amazing gym " Report Response
"Honestly nothing... This day turned out to be about us getting to know each other. Loyola really is beautiful- their mission, their facilities, and their people." Report Response
"They forewarn you that you might have a lot of down time, which you can use to read/study. But this actually ended up being a good opportunity to sit in on lecture, talk to other interviewers, and ask questions from the chairman." Report Response
"LOYOLA IS A GREAT PLACE! Everyone is truly happy with the education and opportunities at Loyola and helping in their community. This was my first interview- but I'll have a better frame of reference to compare Loyola against other schools very soon. :) " Report Response
