Not to be so nervous. Be yourself. If they don't want you if you're being yourself, you probably don't belong there.

"Redundancy of curriculum"

Reviewed Website (#1), SDN (#2), My App (#3), Practice answering by myself in Zoom/BigInterview

Reported experiences · 5 to 10 years ago

Honestly the interviewers were a little awkward. The other ones I've had have been personable and it's been a conversation but that was not my experience here esp with one of the interviewers

Reported experiences · 5 to 10 years ago

Seemed laid back but still top notch

Reported experiences · 5 to 10 years ago

The interview was mostly pretty chill; I was disappointed that one of my interviewers did not practice at the school and other students were interviewed by an M4 and I was not. UVA would be awesome. They are interdisciplinary and the evnrionment is unbeatable.

Reported experiences · 5 to 10 years ago

The student panel was not that informative; tech issues on the virtual interview site.

Reported experiences · 5 to 10 years ago

The admissions staff and assistant dean were awesome and very friendly and humorous. They are prideful in their school but do not think they're god.

SDN, read my app.

Reported experiences · 5 to 10 years ago

I would choose this school immediately if it was cheaper. It's an awesome school in a great location (college town, but close proximity to other areas), with great academics and a focus on student happiness.

How much I would love the school. And also that CHO is a very small airport, and American Airlines sucks.

Reported experiences · 5 to 10 years ago

Not much information provided on extracurriculars. The price tag.

Reported experiences · 5 to 10 years ago

The campus is beautiful, and the lunch (plus the conversation with the 2 students) was good! Interviews were very conversational. Extremely quick decision time (give you a decision by the Friday on the week you interviewed). Students seemed happy and eager to share their knowledge. The 18 month curriculum. Option to do rotation at Inova campus or in Charlottesville (with away rotations).

Read through AMCAS app and secondary. Made list of common interview questions and possible answers. Read up/watched videos on the US healthcare system and its issues. Did a few practice interviews with random people online (through r/premed reddit page).

Reported experiences · 5 to 10 years ago

The interviewers had thoroughly read through my file. know your app well
