SDN and reddit
Lovely school, lovely people :)
That it was open file.
We were supposed to have 10 minutes break before interviews began, but the presentation about the school ran overtime so I had 2 minutes to prepare myself.
MS stories about community driven school network. How receptive they are to supporting student ideas and initiatives.
Looked on SDN, Reddit, interview guides on websites, and YouTube video from Shemmassain. Dr. Gray’s Medical school interview book. Mock interviews with friends. Guidance from current MS1 and research mentor. Long SOM YouTube videos and website.
Overall I liked the school even more after the interview.
Nothing, I felt they gave enough information and prepared us well.
Nothing
They are just as kind and friendly as they claim to be!
Read all the SDN questions and wrote down answers to them. Read a lot about the school, read the Interview Day website inside and out. Watched the videos on their admissions YouTube channel (incredibly helpful)!
Prepared standard questions, reviewed my app, it was very chill and not stressful.
Loved this school, especially the culture and attitudes of students and faculty!
Nothing. Super transparent process, no surprises
Preclinical grades aren't purely pass/fail; they have honors, high pass, pass, fail. Kind of a drawback since a lot of other schools are completely pass/fail for preclinical grades.
Everyone at this school is so nice! Students were very chill and easygoing, and the admissions director and team really emphasized that interview day was supposed to be relaxed and laid-back. They did a great job of reducing stress and making it an all-around positive experience. Interview day and the overall attitudes of the students and admissions teams made me want to attend this school. Administration seems like they are super receptive to student feedback and fostering a positive environment for their students' wellbeing. Also, great match rates and match list!
Read my primary app, read the SDN interview feedback, read the school website, read the interview day website in depth, watched the videos on their interview day youtube channel, practiced standard interview questions
it really is a conversation - they just want to have a nice chat and get to know you
