I didn't like the interview. Wasn't a friendly get to know me but rather a difficult in depth grill session.

prepare very thoroughly for difficult questions. not ethical, but practice every single question type and practice a ton bruh it was like a whole index of q's was asked of me.

the interviewers were not chill lol. i felt grilled for the entire time. wasn't a pleasant experience and gave me a negative impression overall

Admissions staff are diverse and genuinely want you to do well; transparent school

KU sdn interview questions, practicing commonly asked questions, memorized my app through and through

Mock interviews

I did early decision so it is very competitive but we hear back quickly. I think the interview helped me reiterate why I wanted to go to KU med and would be a good candidate for their program

There weren't many ethical questions but rather more political type questions concerning healthcare

I got asked if I partied in my free time.. kind of threw me off.

The interviewers were able to joke and make it more nonchalant

prepared questions online, mock interviews

The interview was very casual. The interviewers were just normal people having a normal conservation

To be less nervous

The friendliness of all the staff during the interview process

Went over my application a lot

This is a nice interview day. Your questions about curriculum and financial aid will be answered in group presentations, and you get to meet multiple current students over the course of lunch and your tour. The new HEB is very cool - they even have a model hospital where nurses and MDs in training work together on simulation cases. A major emphasis throughout the day is that KU Med seeks to train clinicians to serve in Kansas.

We didn't know the identity of our interviewers ahead of time, but they are a diverse bunch - faculty, practicing MDs from the community, PhDs who work on Health Policy and Health Management, and 4th year medical students.

Not sure this is a negative, per se, but the two interviews were quite different. There was some question overlap, but my first interviewer was more assertive in their line of questioning, while the second was more conversational.

Even at the end of the interview week, after meeting dozens of candidates, the interviewers knew my file and my story.
