"Everything is related to your application (mostly your extracurriculars, jobs, etc.) and connecting it to Osteopathic Medicine. Although some did not like the style of the interview, this interview is really about speaking from your heart. Don't B.S. and don't blabber, and you'll do fine in the interview portion." Report Response | I was asked this question too
"They will probably take a line from your personal essays, and ask you to elaborate on it." Report Response | I was asked this question too
"About the physician I shadowed." Report Response | I was asked this question too

"Ha, well, in speaking I lost track of what exactly the question was in my mind, so I ended an answer abruptly... don't do that." Report Response | I was asked this question too
"SDN, student catalog, their website" Report Response
"I thought the school grounds were nice, actually. It is a coastal area, so if you aren't used to that, then it may be surprising. However, it is very green on campus. Dr. Haight was encouraging and this is the first school that I have interacted with the Dean of Students/Admissions this much. This school is perfect for the person that wants to do international medical aide. They have a global health program and the MPH would mean you could make a difference even after you came back to the states. The students didn't seem as stressed as they were at some of the more competitive schools." Report Response
"Nothing really stood out as bad, but I'd say look at the next section (know ahead of time)." Report Response
"Do Not Apply Late to this school. It didn't seem like there were a lot of slots left, and since my chances were low to get in and I'm paying for all of this on my own, I wish I had applied earlier or had not been invited." Report Response
"This is a good school. It is more competitive to be accepted here than I first presumed (especially late in the game). The interview process is nothing to be scared/intimidated about, every interviewer was very encouraging and upbeat, even though I had blemishes on my record. The facilities are fine, old but not run-down. There seem to be adequate clinical rotations and a good chance to get a great residency if you work hard at it (just like anywhere). Good luck!"
