I wish I had reviewed laws of healthcare more

In the acting mode in the behavior my interviewer was stern and putting me in a tough spot, but on the outside was being calm and kind. Traditional interviewer was kind and asked common traditional questions.

Practiced with tutors and read over their website

Reported experiences · Within the past 2 years

The introduction was splendid as the group was not too big and everyone got to share a bit about themselves. They definitely seemed curious to learn more about us. The behavioral interview was stressful, but I believe they are simply trying to show us what the path will look like ahead. The meeting with the active students was a great time to ask any questions.

Reported experiences · Within the past 2 years

Both interviewers were very much "check-list" type of interviewers. They also didn't know much about the school so it was very hard to ask questions.

Nothing really - my interviewers seemed quite tired, which is to be expected, but they were still professional, kind, and courteous. I didn't necessarily think they were excited to be conducting the interview, but they seemed like good people and dedicated physicians.

The energy of the faculty and students is very welcoming - it does seem like they are on your side. I thought the interview day was organized very well, and all pieces were impactful and helpful for me. Everybody allowed me to ask the questions I needed to determine my fit for the institution.
