"The facilities were very nice. The students were very interested in making sure we had a good visit and had all of our questions answered. The strength of clinical training students receive is a huge plus. Winston-Salem is a quiet little city, if you're looking for a busy city, this is not the place for you, but I really liked the size and tempo of the place. " More from this Member | Report Response

"The organized day, wonderful facilities, how nice everyone was" More from this Member | Report Response

"Everything! I really enjoyed my time at Wake and in Winston-Salem. It is a smaller town, and slower-paced than many places: this is something I really like. Beautiful scenery, nice facilities, nice students. Everyone seemed very enthusiastic and happy to be at Wake." More from this Member | Report Response

"not much, but the faculty was nice" More from this Member | Report Response

"Positive attitude, happiness of students and faculty (despite the small town), facilities, hospital is right there. It was the first anatomy lab I've seen and the cadavers were surreal. Clinical experience right away and throughout time there. The advance technology i.e. laptops, ether net, audio of class, links to relevant information for classes supplied prior to class. Everyone seems to work together. Very good support systems in place. Opportunities to go abroad." More from this Member | Report Response

"nice facilities, friendly students and staff" More from this Member | Report Response

"Everyone was very warm and friendly, which is nice." More from this Member | Report Response

"All the students seemed very happy with their decision to go to school at Wake Forest. The system tries to foster cooperation over competition. Also, Wake gives its students lots of patient interaction early on (the school is adjoined to the hospitals). The faculty are very receptive to students' comments and complaints." More from this Member | Report Response

"Everyone was extremely nice and helpful. All the students seemed very happy and impressed with the program. Oh, and the new vents for the gross lab. It doesn't stink!" More from this Member | Report Response

"The hospital, all the people at the med school, and the curriculum" More from this Member | Report Response

"High level of attention paid to students by the faculty and staff, Winston-Salem seems to be a nice quiet town with a really great quality of life. The students are were very enthusiastic about the school, and had great advice. The 20 min X 3 interview format was very relaxed, and quite a nice departure. Overall, I loved this school, and it's definitely my first choice." More from this Member | Report Response

"All the students I saw and talked to absolutely love the school and talked about how well they were treated there. They also talked about how responsive the faculty are to the students feedback. I had heard briefly about their problem-based curriculum but was not familiar with the details but after hearing more about it I think it sounds like an excellent curriculum especially for someone who is a learn-by-doing type of person. " More from this Member | Report Response

"Beautiful country. Really nice people." More from this Member | Report Response

"- The integrated curriculum - it's great for self motivated people who don't like being spoon fed. - Hospital & school are all in one building - New conprehensive cancer research center going up soon - Hospital & facilities were nice - PBL is a key component of this curriculum. Though there are substantial lectures, there is also a strong emphasis on clinical skills development. I think it's a good balance. - They "give" you an IBM Thinkpad & Palm. This not really true - you pay for it. It's just that everyone gets the same one. - No over night calls on the wards (except if you want) - They tell you when exactly when they will make a decision and notify you. No admissions office games." More from this Member | Report Response

"Curriculum seems to be new. Technology up to date." More from this Member | Report Response

"Everyone was very friendly and very laid-back. The medical students who give you the tour will answer any questions you have about the school honestly. Also, a volunteer with the hospital guild is there with you all day to make you feel more comfortable. She was very nice and helped make the process less stressful." More from this Member | Report Response

"The facilities are very nice. It's apparent the difference money can make. The students seem very intelligent, and more importantly, happy. Very nice place to study. Cheap apartments, too." More from this Member | Report Response

"The students seemed very laid back and honest about everything and said that they were very happy there. The facilities are nice and very modern and technologically advanced. Everyone was very friendly. Cheap cost of living is a definite plus!" More from this Member | Report Response

"The free top of the line laptops and palm pilots given to all students(which are upgraded after 2nd yr). The hospital is constantly being renovated and made better. Consequently even though the school has been around since the 1900's, everything looks fairly new. The curriculum is neat, very integrated. Faculty is very responsive to student complaints. ACC basketball is cool and the med students get free tickets to wake games. Housing is cheap. 675 rent for a house across the street. I pay that much to share a room in LA." More from this Member | Report Response

"The school has a really student-oriented attitude. Wake Forest wasn't one of my top choices, but after visiting the school, it's definately one of my top two choices. " More from this Member | Report Response

"Laid back approach by the interviewing faculty" More from this Member | Report Response

"A lot of the class handouts are online. " More from this Member | Report Response

"the one-way virtual assessment" More from this Member | Report Response

"The annoyance students had with particular electives in the foundations phase" More from this Member | Report Response

"Building feels rather empty" More from this Member | Report Response

"Facility is weirdly mapped out since the medical school is lumped in the same building as the hospital" More from this Member | Report Response

"The facilities were a tad dated." More from this Member | Report Response

"The surrounding area is quite boring. The student lounge and study areas are rather gloomy and dated. The gym is TINY. And one of my interviewers kept cutting me off mid-sentence over and over again." More from this Member | Report Response

"not very impressive classrooms, study areas, that sort of thing. but those things really don't matter." More from this Member | Report Response

"Wish i could have seen more of the campus on the tour but, still a nice 1 hour tour." More from this Member | Report Response

"Seems like a lot of time spent in class. I was not a big fan of the 3 short interviews because I didn't get a chance to have really good conversations with my interviewers. We barely had time for just a few rapid-fire questions without a lot of discussion or "bonding" time. Also, the school's website doesn't have a lot of information on it, especially regarding the curriculum." More from this Member | Report Response

"not too much to do in the area outside of outdoor activities" More from this Member | Report Response

"the financial aid presentation, soooo expensive" More from this Member | Report Response

"The gym/workout area was pretty small" More from this Member | Report Response

"Seems to be little to no freedom in 1st and 2nd years, i.e. 8-5 mandatory lecture 3-4 days a week. Seems to cater a bit towards NC residents. No pharmacology. This is just nitpicking though." More from this Member | Report Response

"Relatively isolated location, airport is over 30 mins away" More from this Member | Report Response

"The gym in the medical center is pretty useless. My tour guide said many people end up getting memberships at the nearby YMCA." More from this Member | Report Response

"The gym sucks." More from this Member | Report Response

"First year students at lunch did not know ANYTHING about years 2, 3, or 4. That is to say they had no answers about support services, curriculum, clinical opportunities - pretty much, they seemed to be in their own little bubble - which may be good for med school success but is bad for being a visiting applicant resource." More from this Member | Report Response

"Located in a very small town, some social life lacking" More from this Member | Report Response

"One of the interviewers was assigned the "mean interviewer role," but I could tell that he was uncomfortable asking difficult questions. " More from this Member | Report Response

"Not much! " More from this Member | Report Response

"The classrooms and med school facilities were old. The med school didn't seem to really have it's own dedicated facilities, either. Fairly expensive school. Very little contact with students during the interview day. Way too much time spent in class." More from this Member | Report Response

"A student told me they went there because it was the only school they got into." More from this Member | Report Response

"two students said that they came to Wake because they didn't get in anywhere else" More from this Member | Report Response

"The hospital cafeteria food." More from this Member | Report Response

"Not that many international opportunities, would have to go to a nearby school to take global health classes." More from this Member | Report Response

"The facilities aren't that great, and very few students came to tell us why they liked the school. It felt like a place a lot of people weren't excited to be at. It also seems to cater to NC residents with scholarships and opportunities. The schedule looks jam packed with not a lot of free-time, and there don't seem to be that many interesting innovations in their curriculum." More from this Member | Report Response

"I-40 was under construction! Almost late to interview." More from this Member | Report Response

"I agree the 15 min style interview format is strange, but it is no reason to dislike the school and it is certainly enough time to impress them. " More from this Member | Report Response

"Not much - I don't see why some people dislike the school. The people seemed really nice, the facilities definitely above average, and students happy to be there." More from this Member | Report Response

"Everything else. This is a school that is built around what I call "the good ole boy system." If you are from the area you are set. If not, you better be freakin' great. My third interviewer, PhD, was a joke. He was hyper-defensive about Obama, poorly designed research, and grant funding. I was polite and handled him as well as possible, but let's just say that, Wake, if you are reading this, please follow my advice on this one: you are going to lose a LOT of good people who would LOVE to go to your school if you maintain your current interview method. Having one jerk every day does nothing but cut people down quickly, and if I were you, I would stick to MD's for interviewers. The MD's were friendly, outgoing, and concerned for getting to know the applicants. The other person has a thing or two to learn about a little thing called "people skills." Also, don't have the Dean come out and meet us "one-on-one" in a big group and then proceed to show how she memorized one fact about us all. It is tacky and unreal. Be real and just be friendly. I was not impressed but did very well with your system. This should tell you several things, none of which are good." More from this Member | Report Response

"Nothing at all. It honestly is a great place to go to medical school. " More from this Member | Report Response

"Winston Salem is..well...behind in the times. The buildings are very dark and gray. Everyone seemed so down. The students looked like they want to be there. Two of my student hosts said this wasn't their first choice." More from this Member | Report Response

"Having just one hospital to call "Home"" More from this Member | Report Response

"Every student I met seemed apathetic at best, unhappy at worst. Almost everyone I talked to said they were only there because it was the only school they got into. I felt like I was missing something. The school looked so amazing, I thought for sure I wanted to go there during the interview day, but I felt like I was missing something huge that was the reason why nobody wanted to be there. I don't know what it was, but it was kind of eerie. Like there's some ugly secret that no one talks about." More from this Member | Report Response

"Winston-Salem seems pretty small, but NC I imagine is gorgeous in the spring/summer" More from this Member | Report Response

"Outside of the interviewers the admissions folks had no interest in talking with me or getting to know me. " More from this Member | Report Response

"paying to park." More from this Member | Report Response

"They have a interview "mom" who is a wife of one of the doctors on faculty, but the one I had was really opinionated about the economy and pretty much thought everyone else's opinion was incorrect. Also, my second interviewer was really rude and kept interrupting me. When I was talking about my research, he interrupted me and said, "It's not that I don't care, but I don't. I'm not going to remember, but I just wanted to know you did research." Thanks pal, you're a good PR agent for the school. Also, it was very disorganized. The student volunteers for lunch never showed up so a roaming student just volunteered. Also, every student that was with us was from North Carolina. I got NO out-of-state perspective." More from this Member | Report Response

"Nothing really" More from this Member | Report Response

"not enough outreach work" More from this Member | Report Response

"The first interviewer (of 3) who interrogated me about my family." More from this Member | Report Response

"About the interview/school? Not a single thing. The area is the only negative, but I definitely think I could live there. Most people in the school didn't smoke :)" More from this Member | Report Response

"We didn't get to meet any 2nd, 3rd, or 4th year students, or any faculty members except for the interviewers. Also, we weren't able to see any of the hospital on the tour." More from this Member | Report Response

"Nada" More from this Member | Report Response

"how short the interviews were..." More from this Member | Report Response

"absolutely nothing." More from this Member | Report Response

"Almost everything else. Location, student body, class schedule and style, the 'incidents reporting system' wherein you can rat out your classmates, the fact that you have to swipe in to classes. The interview style and process is nerve wracking, and I don't imagine it's any more useful than a less-aggressive process would be." More from this Member | Report Response

"interacting with the tour guild was a little akward" More from this Member | Report Response

"The interview style. 3 15-20 minute interviews was rather odd. I felt like I could barely scratch the surface before having to leave." More from this Member | Report Response

"Winston-Salem isn't for everyone. I loved it (I'm from a smaller town), but if you're looking to go out to clubs, bars, etc., you might want to look elsewhere. Seems like an ideal setting for medical school (lack of major distractions; a very liveable and affordable city). The medical campus gym is a little small." More from this Member | Report Response

"Not too close to a major airport, hospital is very difficult to get around in, location would be far from family." More from this Member | Report Response

"Location." More from this Member | Report Response

"The food in the cafeteria wasn't that good. The hostess from the medical guild was a little inappropriate (reminded me of my opinionated grandmother). The buildings were old and dingy on the surface although the teaching technology was up to date." More from this Member | Report Response

"actually ... the technology ... which everyone loves ... but honestly ... they were like look how impressive this is .. our anatamoy lab with flat screens and no textbooks .. and we dont even have microscopes ... we just use computers ... ''after all doctors dont need to know how to use microscopes'' ... i dont know ... just gave me an uneasy vibe" More from this Member | Report Response

"Although the Medical Guild person was very nice it is highly inappropriate in this day to have what is essentially a ''Doctor's wives club'' to be a part of the interview day. It perpetuates the sexist image that medicine is a man's profession when most incoming classes have a 50-50 ratio. In addition, the students I met lacked any enthusiasm for the school." More from this Member | Report Response

"Small town with small population may decrease the variety of medical cases we are exposed to." More from this Member | Report Response

"The interviews were timed and when you had about five minutes left- there was a knock on the door to wrap it up." More from this Member | Report Response

"Lack of scholarships talked about by admissions office" More from this Member | Report Response

"Town of Winston-Salem is small..." More from this Member | Report Response

"The facilities, with the exception of the anatomy lab, were not nearly as up to date as you would expect. The lecture halls and small group rooms and library were not on par with other schools at all." More from this Member | Report Response

"The city" More from this Member | Report Response

"Location (I'm from Winston-Salem, it's not a great city for young adults)" More from this Member | Report Response

"-The area is what everyone says it is: a little bland. They are revamping downtown though. -Medical students have a tiny health center, and don't have access to WFU's main workout facilities." More from this Member | Report Response

"lecture room not in good shape compared to rest of facilities" More from this Member | Report Response

"I didn't think that the interview format allowed enough time to really communicate much of anything. I'm sure there is a reason that they do it this way..." More from this Member | Report Response

"The first year floor (classroom and small group rooms) was kind of dingy, definitely the low point of the tour." More from this Member | Report Response

"Winston-Salem is pretty dead; facilities (other than technology) are really drab; the two floors you spend the first two years on are underground!" More from this Member | Report Response

"never saw or mentioned match list, tour guide was supposed to take us on an hour long tour, but she managed to cover everything in 15 minutes, which suggests she probably forgot to show us a lot" More from this Member | Report Response

"OHHHH THE AWFUL, RIDICULOUS, TRULY OBNOXIOUS DOCTOR WIFE THAT IS WITH YOU ALL THE TIME WITH NO CONECTION WHATSOEVER SINCE SHE NEVER WENT TO MED SCHOOL, IS ONLY THERE COZ SHE HAS NOTHING ELSE TO DO IN HER LIFE BESIDES TALKING ABOUT HOW PERFECT HER FAMILY IS AND ASK YOU STUPID QUESTIONS LIKE, WHERE YOU LIVE? IS THAT A NICE NEIGHBORHOOD? " More from this Member | Report Response

"The classroom facilities" More from this Member | Report Response

"The chaperon was from the "doctor's wives" club. " More from this Member | Report Response

"How depressing Windston-salem seems to be." More from this Member | Report Response

"The financial aid people couldn't be there that day, so that info session was conducted by someone from admissions, who didn't seem to know a whole lot about it" More from this Member | Report Response

"The short length of the interviews." More from this Member | Report Response

"One of the women in the admissions office was snappy." More from this Member | Report Response

"Rigid curriculum, no electives until 4th year, few students took part in research (this was confirmed by an interviewer who told me that she was disappointed with the amount of basic research that takes place at Wake), some facilities looked worn, high average student debt, most of the students you talk to are 1st Year without much experience in med school, seems like a lot of politics among the admin/faculty, MEDICAL GUILD CHAPERONE!" More from this Member | Report Response

"The facilities are really big so easy to get lost. The interviews are done like a round robin. Half of the people interview are one time and you have a 15 min time limit, which is good if the interview is going poorly but annoying if it is going well. The proctor knocks at the door and then will walk in on the interview if you go over time." More from this Member | Report Response

"Not much really. They didn't tell us how the students do on board exams, or how the match with residencies." More from this Member | Report Response

"Small town. Visitor parking is pretty limited (although students have their own parking area)." More from this Member | Report Response

"Winston-Salem makes Durham look like New York" More from this Member | Report Response

"The location" More from this Member | Report Response

"Where to begin... Getting greeted by the Medical Center Guild (aka the "wives of doctors club"), the overall attitude - extremely conservative, no merit scholarship for out-of-staters, the fact that the admissions people lied to us (yes yes, we still have about 10-12 spots available only to find out from the students that the class was filled weeks before my interview), etc., etc." More from this Member | Report Response

"I got lost walking frim parking to interview- rambling hospital which I'm sure you get used to. The interviewers asked many of the same questions, and none of then had read any of my expereinces, so I didn't feel that they were well prepared about me." More from this Member | Report Response

"Upon my arrival, I was told that enough acceptances had already been sent out to fill the class and I would therefore be placed on the waiting list. I still think I have a chance though!!" More from this Member | Report Response

"Nothing at all. The tuition is high, but I knew that before I went to the interview, so it wasn't a surprise. " More from this Member | Report Response

"Winston-Salem. Tiny, conservative town. Seriously about three bars and lots of tailgating. Students told me they liked this because they were afraid they wouldn't get studying done if they lived in a city with more to do. Uh-huh. Watch out for Dr. Lee if you get him as an interviewer. He's a killer." More from this Member | Report Response

"Students said there was not much to do in Winston." More from this Member | Report Response

"It is a really small town, sort of out in the middle of nowhere. This is good for some people, not good for those who like big cities. The women from the Medical Center Guild (wives of physicians) welcomed us. That was nice, but what kind of message does that send to future female physicians? I'd like to see the husband of a physician welcome applicants. People seem conservative and old-fashioned here. Winston-Salem seems sort of stuck in time. Tour given by a student was disorganized...she didn't seem to know what to show us or where we were going. " More from this Member | Report Response

"I got the impression that there was maybe a little bit TOO much structure to the curriculum. There didn't seem to be any elective time available until Phase 4. The students seemed to feel that they had great relationships with the administration/faculty which is good, but a couple of them mentioned that they thought that the administration was TOO involved in their academic lives...treating the students more like children/less like adults." More from this Member | Report Response

"The price of tuition. Coming from NC, there are two other public schools in our state that would provide a great education for about 30% of the price of wake." More from this Member | Report Response

"Students regularly attend lecture (not my style), town is a bit small, I didn't notice any nearby airports" More from this Member | Report Response

"I can't think of any." More from this Member | Report Response

"It was made abundantly clear that the learning here is very intense and stressful at times. One admissions officer made it sound like the students hardly have any time to do anything but study. Also, at the lunch with students, the host from the admissions office was there with us, so I got the impression that the students may have been less than honest with some of their answers about the negative aspects of the school."

"- No Pass/Fail; they have a "3 point grading system", which I'm assuming goes 3,2,1,0 for honors, pass, marginal pass, and fail. Depending on how you look at it, it may be a positive or negative. I think it's positive because it rewards those who put in extra effort, but many people don't. - Students don't have their own cubicles " More from this Member | Report Response

She talked about how much she loved Winston-Salem and how much there was to do, but I was like, of course you love it and find lots of things to do -- you're in your fifties! She also took up a lot of valuable time with the current med students by asking them questions whose answers I already knew or didn't care about. Also, every student they assigned to us was from Winston-Salem or nearby, and didn't apply out-of-state. It really made me think twice about going there when over 40% of the students might be expected to share the very ... provincial outlook of the ones we talked to.

The first was straightforward and blunt, very military-like and proper, yes, no, thank you sir. Easy to talk to if you can speak confidently. The second interviewer was nice and comforting, very motherly. You could say anything and she would smile and nod approvingly. The third interviewer was angry, hostile, and bitter, and used profanity to express disapproval. It seems like the interviewers were chosen purposely to see how the candidates responded to different forms of inquiry." More from this Member | Report Response

"The interviews go very quickly and interviewers have access to your primary and secondary essays.

"One of the interviewers wasn't able to be there, so it was just two people instead of the usual three. They really didn't ask many questions; it was more of a conversation. There's a big emphasis on clinical practice at Wake, so it's a good place if that's what you want to do. There's a good vibe of camaraderie between the students. One of the tour guides was a little strange (he was quizzing us on anatomy and stuff), but most of the people are fairly laid back." More from this Member | Report Response

"Wake seems nice, and I would love to go here, but it would be difficult justifying their $58,000 per year vs. my state schools $25,000. I really didn't feel like I got a better impression of what the school was about after the interview." More from this Member | Report Response

We then break up into two groups of three...one group starts interviewing, the other group goes on a tour. The interview style is unique...there are three interviews with three different ppl at three different times...each lasting about 15 mins...we go into the room...the interview is closed file but they do have your personal statement and your secondary answers (no grades or scores)...we chat for 15 mins and we have to stop when the hostess knocks...we wait for a few mins for the interviewer to jot down notes about the interview and then we start again in the next room...it isn' very stressful because you don't have enough time to get nervous. It is hard because in that time, you don't have time to get to know the interviewer and you can't really judge how well you did. However I did enjoy myself very much!"

"My best interview experience to date. They had a ''mom'' for the day (a spouse of a physician involved at Wake) that kept everyone on schedule and going to the right place.

"I had the exact same interview 3 times in a row, but with 3 different doctors... It seems like they didn't discuss beforehand what types of questions they were going to ask. I was quite literally asked the exact same questions by all 3 of my interviewers. It was frustrating, because I ended up having to talk about similar things in each one, and I don't think I was able to portray a lot about myself that I would have liked to."

"Met by medical guild in the morning (the wife of a medical school faculty member), who was super nice and made everyone feel relaxed. Went to presentation on the school and financial aid for about an hour. Then we went to lunch with three first year students. They were very honest about Wake and gave us a clear picture of the school. After lunch, we toured the medical education building (anatomy lab, classrooms, and the library). Finally, at 2 we went back for our interviews, which weren't stressful at all (very conversational, get-to-know-you type of interviews). I was done by three o'clock and drove right to the airport to catch my flight." More from this Member | Report Response

"I arrived at 9:45 and basically just sat around talking with the other interviewees and a doctor's wife until 10:45. There are 6 interviewees on any given day. I thought both the presentation about the school and financial aid were very good. Lunch with M2's and tour with M1's. Interviews were only 15 min. each interviewer just has your personal statement, but they may not have read it very closely or remember it well. Two of my interviewers were very stoic/aloof at first but they warmed up by the end of the interview... I think they may do that at first to see how you respond."

"Showed up to the hospital about 45 minutes early. Parked in parking structure ''A'' althugh ''B'' would have been fine as well. There is no sense in trying to find the school yourself, just ask the first information desk you see. Checked in at the admissions office. They have a hostess from the Wake Forest Medical Guild (Spouses Club) that help out during the day. I saw previous posters suggest that this was sexest, but I think there is nothing wrong with family members trying to be involved in the community where their spouses work, whether they are male or female it really doesn't matter. We received a presentation on admissions (7500 applicants last year(entering class of 2007), 500 interviewed, about half of them accepted). Received a wonderful financial aid presentation. Then went to lunch with current MS2s. There were 6 of us in the interview group, after lunch 3 of us went with a couple MS1s for a tour, the other 3 did interviews and then we switched. The interviews were very short and very easy, made me wonder how important they could really be in the application process. We were done by 330pm. " More from this Member | Report Response

I'm a Christian, and indicated as much in my primary application, and got a little bit of flack from one of the professors in the form of the ''God thing'' question and other ethical questions.

On the whole, I'm impressed with the school, and am looking forward to attending if at all possible." More from this Member | Report Response

The whole day was very informative. Prior to interviewing, when I looked at the schedule, I thought that the amount of time alloted for the information sessions was excessive.

"The day was planned out exactly the way Wake said it would be. Our "medical guild volunteer" didn't show in the morning, so I just talked with the other interviewees (6 of us total) from 10-10:30. Irene Tise from Admissions took us into a small conference room and showed us a ppt presentation on Wake and the curriculum, with lots of handouts. A Financial Aid lady told us all we needed to know about need-based aid, federal loans and private loans, and even showed us that if you buy a Starbucks coffee 4 days a week during med school, you could end up owing over $3000 when it's time to pay back student loans! Two MSII's took us to lunch who seemed very happy with Wake. They told us not to worry if we're waitlisted because almost half the class has been traditionally taken from this list. Cafeteria was pretty darn good. Interviews started at 1pm. Three students go on a tour, while the other three stay to interview. You interview with 3 different faculty members for 15 minutes each, then they spend ~5 minutes writing about you before the next one. They only have your PS and secondary essays, so you end up talking about the big obvious stuff you've done, and don't get a chance to get to anything really nitty-gritty. I personally liked that because it makes it much less stressful! Preparing with SDN Interview Feedback reeeeeeeally helped. The tour was fine. You don't get to see much more than Watlington Hall, which is where the med school facilities are. It's basically two pretty drab looking floors with drab rooms: 2 lectures halls (one for year 1 and one for year 2), a student lounge, the library, some small-group learning rooms, a couple Standardized Patient Assessment rooms, a super small 'fitness center',and that's pretty much it. The anatomy lab is pretty cool though -- each cadaver has a 20" flat screen above it, so you can see what the profs are doing. You can also see CT scans of your cadaver, on this screen and on your laptop anytime." More from this Member | Report Response

"The "speed dating" aspect goes smoothly. After lunch... 15 min. in interview one, 5 min. off while they take notes (a kitchen timer goes off and a lady knocks on the door), then repeat for interviews 2 & 3. The interviewers only had my amcas personal statement and the add'l comments I added to my secondary. The day starts with a meet & greet with a physician's wife (liaison). Ours is a drug rep married to an anesthesiologist (imagine that). She was great. Then we heard talks on the school, its curriculum/technology and finaid. Lunch was in the anything but diminutive cafeteria (w/ 2 first years). After the interviews we had a tour given by another 1st year (the only downside to the whole thing. all 1st year contact). No closing meeting. " More from this Member | Report Response

"Honestly there were so many times I wanted to slap the lady sitting next to us. Except for one in the group we are like 20 years younger than her and we are not married yet, we still have a life of our own, all her conversation was about her husband "my husband is the head doctor of surgery", "my daughter blah", "my son is in college", "we live there", LADY WE DO NOT CARE!!! BORING!

"I was sort of medium on the whole deal. The "speed dating" was as bad as people had said -- I felt like I said the same things to 3 different people (plus I had this weird anxiety that if I phrased something a bit differently they would all cross-check with each other and decide I was lying). The school really likes to brag about their anatomy lab -- which is great, but you have to think about the fact that you will only be in there for the first 12 weeks of your first year, then you'll probably never go in it again. The rest of their facilities were very cramped. Small room with small desks for the first years, and the whiteboard seems barely visible from the back row.

"For starters, I am not the typical medical school applicant. I come from a pretty rough background but I have decent grades and a pretty good MCAT score. I really felt out of my league because I was interviewing with people from MIT and the ivy league. However, what I found was that the overall interview process at WFU was very laid back and inviting. I was a nervous wreck and my interviewers made a point of easing the atmosphere. The conversations during my interviews were very open and non-confrontational, while still focusing on specific questions. They really wanted to get to know me as a person. My best advice to anyone is to be yourself, answer questions as honestly as possible. Oh yeah, show some excitement about getting an opportunity to go to medical school.

"Arrived at the admissions office to be greeted by the wife of one of the dean. She was nice and interesting to talk to. I drank a lot of the tea they had placed out and once all the student had arrived (around 6 or so) we went to see some mind-numbing presentation about the school and finacial aid. We went to lunch after this, which was nice because I felt very burnt out from the presentation. The students that talked with us at lunch were nice and seemed to answer all our questions honestly. We then went back to the office for interviews. These were fine. Even if you do terrible, you will probably feel like you did okay, just because the staff is so friendly. After the tour, we went on an interview, which would have been as boring as the presentation had our guide not been so fun to talk to. Overall the school itself was great.

"The interview process is strange...almost like speed-dating. You get a max of twenty minutes with each interviewer, who only has access to your AMCAS and secondary essays. What I found to be frustrating is that you spend 10-15 minutes just revisiting the experiences you listed in your AMCAS. If you're going to have short interviews, the interviewers need to have your background so you can quickly move onto other topics. I didn't particularly like the system. I didn't think it was stressful, I just thought it was odd. Also, I thought the Medical Guild (AKA Doctors' Wives Club) Liason was detrimental to the interview experience. It's like having your mom there the whole time. I mean what kind of insight can they offer that goes beyond the input of the students? Did they go to the school? No. Did they EVER go to medical school? No. What's the point? Additionally, I thought their presence detracted from open discussion among the group interviewing as well as the Q&A with current students. Personally, I just thought this contributed to the my sense that Wake doesn't really trust it's students and does everything for them. I felt like I was being talked down to at the curriculum brief, there are no electives until 4th year (we wouldn't want you thinking on your own now would we?), and you have to find your own funding for study abroad. Not the place for someone who really wants to set out on their own path. As for the facilities, I thought some of the buildings and classes looked run down. In the 1st Year lecture hall some of the ceiling tiles were missing and the wires were hanging down. Overall, I wasn't particularly impressed, but that is just my opinion. I'm older than most students and I just didn't feel like was the place for me. " More from this Member | Report Response

"I really enjoyed my time at Wake Forest and am hoping to be accepted there! There are only 6 interviewees total, so there is lots of space for personal attention (only 3 people per student tour! no herds of black suits storming through the halls! amazing!) Having the medical guild member guide you through your day and the hospital was very helpful. Our guide was very nice and talkative, although having her there constantly did make you feel like you had to be "on" even when you were just with the other interviewees. The lunch was fantastic (for a hospital cafeteria) and I felt like I got a ton of information talking to the students during that time. The presentations on the admissions process/curriculum/financial aid were all very informative and to the point. It is so nice that they tell you the exact day the committee is meeting to evaluate you and how your interviewers will submit their evals. The interviewers are faculty volunteers. They interview you each for 15 minutes and then meet as a group to discuss the applicants directly after. This report will be submitted to the admissions committee who will review the entire application and make a decision). The interviews themselves were very relaxed. They have your AMCAS personal statement and your secondary essay. They asked mainly questions about experiences that I detailed in my essays and a couple of the broad ethical questions that are highlighted here on SDN. Everything was very conversational and I never felt like I was on the spot to provide the "right" answer. A fifteen minute interview is too short if you hit if off with the interviewer, but actually feels a bit long if you don't really "click". I had one of each and one that was somewhere in the middle, so overall I was happy that they were only 15 minutes. " More from this Member | Report Response

All other interviewees have the same interviewees. Secondly, the office keeps an alarm set for 15 minutes per each interview.

They only have access to your AMCAS essay and any Wake secondary essays. All of the interviewers were very nice, supportive, and appeared interested in what I had to say.

"The office is a bit difficult to find from the parking garage (park on the orange level and walk straight ahead). I went the night before and did a dry run to get the right entrance and I asked for directions since I got a bit turned around. It really helped because I had no problem finding it the next morning. Parking is $3.75 for the day. It was supposed to be 6 interviewees but one canceled at the last minute. We all came early, so we had a chance to chat with each other. A volunteer then talked to us for about 30 mins. She kept telling us how wonderful everything was. I appreciated her enthusiasm but she never experienced going to school there. She was however very helpful with general questions about the town, living expenses, etc. and very friendly. We then met with a staff member that rattled off the description of the program. I swear she said "Any questions? Good, let's move on" withour skipping a beat. The Financial aid person came next and explained the whole thing which was nice as they don't do that at many other schools. Thinking about debt was kind of depressing though. We then went to lunch in the cafeteria with the volunteer and 2 1st years. A couple 2nd years showed up later. From there it was the 15 minute interviews for half while the other half did the tour and then we switched. The 15 minutes were up really fast. We couldn't really get into depth about much and I felt like I had to answer asap before time was up hence the tendency to babble. :-) My 1st interviewer was awesome. He had a great sense of humor and had me rolling most of the 15 mins. The other 2 were more serious but okay. You are interviewed by MDs and PhDs and they don't have any information from your file except your personal statement. Most of the questions come from there. Try hanging out in Walmart for a bit to see if you're going to like it there. It is a totally different environment from the hospital/school setting." More from this Member | Report Response

It's not super high on my list mainly because of the location (I'm not a huge fan of the South--no offense), but it's still a wonderful school worth looking into. Of all the schools at which I interviewed in the same tier as it, Wake stood out by far. " More from this Member | Report Response

"I had a lot of high hopes for this school. Unless you are really comfortable going to school in a smaller Southern town, I wouldn't put too many high hopes in this school." More from this Member | Report Response

"There were six people there to interview. Three of us first went on a tour while the other three interviewed, and then we switched. There were three short interviews with faculty members, two MDs and one PhD. The interviewers were all nice, and they all asked different sorts of questions. The PhD asked a different sorts of questions--ones that were relevant to both the clinical and the research sides of medicine. Overall, the interviews weren't too stressful." More from this Member | Report Response

"this interview experience was friendlier than i expected. the admissions people and finanical aid talked to us, then it was lunch in the cafeteria and a tour. finally, three short, short interviews." More from this Member | Report Response

"Wow. This is by far the best school I have interviewed at (out of 8). The technology is great and really is helping students to be prepared for practice in the future. The curriculum is a great mix of tradition w/ small group problem based learning. The interviews were good. Yes, they were a little rushed, but everyone understands that, so don't feel like you have to answer quickly and try to exploit your good points. It seems like they really just want to get a feel for you as a person, so time really isn't an issue. Great school. Great education. Good location (Winston-Salem really is a nice place-not a ton of social areas, but still plenty to do). Moving forward and getting better all the time. " More from this Member | Report Response

"Pretty laid back and very short interviews. They do not let you go any length of time over 15 minutes. They are very proud of their curriculum so make sure that you know it well and why it would be a good fit for you." More from this Member | Report Response

"very low-stress! all 3 interviewers were friendly and laid-back. we couldn't get into much depth in the interviews since they were short, but i didn't feel like that was a problem." More from this Member | Report Response

"I had a wonderful time at Wake. It is a good school. Winston-salem is a small town and things seem to close early but given that you will be busy most of the time, I think it's alright. I am a small town kind of person so if you are, Winston-Salem may just be a perfect fit." More from this Member | Report Response

"There were three interviews, 20 minutes each. The interviewers had only seen the personal statement from my AMCAS application beforehand. Two of the interviews were just conversational, while the other one was designed to make you think on your feet about some non-conversational questions (see below). It's just key to remember that the whole point isn't your answers, it's how you handle yourself while delivering them." More from this Member | Report Response

"Great school; wonderful integration of curriculum; very balanced. Professors seem very helpful. All very laid back. " More from this Member | Report Response

"There are three 20 minute interviews. It sounds really stressful, but it's really not. Just make sure to get points across about yourself if you want to because once the hostess knocks on the door it is time for you to rotate to the next interviewer. All the interviews were very conversational and the interviewers only look at your personal statement from the AMCAS application so make sure you know it well because most of the things that end up being discussed come from that." More from this Member | Report Response

"The interviews were a little like musical chairs. Fast & intense pace for 40 mins. Two of my interviewers were really conversational while one was ethical/healthcare stuff. But none were too stressful. Remember you can always ask interviewers questions about themselves - it's a good opportunity to learn about individual doctors in medicine. You can really learn a lot about what problems doctors encounter." More from this Member | Report Response

"The interview day is interesting. You have 3, 15 min interviews... make sure you get out what you want to say at that time because you're literally asked to leave after 15 min." More from this Member | Report Response

"Okay, There will be a hostess who will insist that you eat lots of cookies and drink lots of refreshments. She is there to encourage you to socialize so you will "loosen up". Although she does not have an official vote she does report back to the Admissions people so put on your best face and compliment the cookies. They really are good. You to to a meeting where the curriculum and financial aid people let you know what is going on. Then you go to lunch with a med student and the hostess. When you come back three people go tour the school and the other three interview. Wake Forest seemed a little more conservative than the other schools I interviewed at so watch out. Don't be too out there. Also you have to interview for 20 minutes per person and the funny part is at 15 the hostess comes and raps on the door then at 20 she comes back to knock one more time. If she comes back a third time you are "removed" from the room =) so rap it up when you hear the knock they are relentless! Have fun be ready for the cheesy who do you look up to type questions.

"I had a great time at Wake Forest. And I would really love to be part of their community. " More from this Member | Report Response

"Overall this is a nice school and I don't mean to convey such a negative opinion, its just that the interviews were so short and the format of rotating from one to the other was stressful... it was hard to feel like anyone got to know me." More from this Member | Report Response

"No wonder Wake is called the Harvard of the Yadkin River. This is a school that deserves more credit than it gets. I had a wonderful experience and would be honored to attend this school." More from this Member | Report Response

"Great overall, though it was the second day of the interview season and no students could be found to take us on our tour, so teh dean of admissions did, and the wife of the Dean of the Medical School sat and talked with us for hours." More from this Member | Report Response

"Very positive. I would definitely consider attending the school if accepted" More from this Member | Report Response

"I arrived at 10am with 4 other applicants. We socialized for 30 minutes and then went into a conference room where they talked about the curriculum, statistics of acceptance and answered our questions. Then financial aid came in and thoroughly depressed us with the money issue (private school $$$). Afterwards we were escorted to lunch with 2 second year medical students. Interviews were with 3 different people from different areas of medicine (dentistry, research and clinical). We were told that the interviews would be conversational in nature and nothing to stress about. However, one of the interviewers decided to grill us on ethical questions. It was unexpected, but we got through it! The other 2 were as promised...conversational. They were all given access to our personal statements, but nothing else in our file. After the hour of interviews was over we took a quick tour of the class rooms and facilities with 2 different second year students. They took us to the anatomy lab where a couple of lab groups were working. It was my first time seeing a cadaver. All students are given laptops and access to a fully functional workout center as part of their tuition. They had a lot of energy and really seemed happy about their choice to attend Wake Forest. I left at 3:45. Overall, it was great. " More from this Member | Report Response

"all interviews were based solely on the personal statement so be familiar with it, as most questions come from it! " More from this Member | Report Response

"Loved it! Crossing my fingers..." More from this Member | Report Response

"Interviews there are semi-open-file in that the interviewers have copies of your AMCAS essay and your personal statement but none of your statistics. So they ask questions mostly related to what you talked about in your essay. The interviews are also strictly kept to 20 minutes. I had heard before going to the interview about how their USMLE scores had plummeted since switching to the problem-based learning curriculum and I ask the students that took us to lunch about that. They said that initially the school went a little overboard away from tradition core science teaching but now the curriculum has moved back to a better balance and that they expect scores this year to be back where they should be. They also said that even though Step 1 scores dropped after PBL Step 2 scores rose significantly, something which I had not heard. So basically it boils down to PBL may be harder initially but it pays off in the long run. " More from this Member | Report Response

"They have a unique interview format. You have 3 interviews, each lasting no longer than 20 minutes. I like this because in most interviews, I've felt like the interview has made an assessment after 5 minutes. The rest is just a waste of time. It's less pressure this way. Just go into it with the attitude that you're meeting someone new for a short conversation (at a cocktail party if that helps). I really liked Wake. Its curriculum is flexible and can somewhat be compared to Yale's. Though Yale has a more traditional curriculum (less PBL, etc.), both schools seem to foster academic independence and self-directed learning. Bottom line: you can get a super competitive residency if you want, but you gotta do the work. It's all up to you; you get what you put into it." More from this Member | Report Response

"came away very impressed with the program. seems to be an intimate environment(class size 108) and program is highly integrative. lots of good technology and winston-salem is a nice (if not exciting) city. school just got a new dean who is well thought of. my impression was that school in general was very forward thinking." More from this Member | Report Response

"It was good overall." More from this Member | Report Response

"It was a great experience! Definitely not stressful at all. The interviewers really want to know about you and don't try to stump you with any ethical questions. Great school!" More from this Member | Report Response

"Wake's a very nice school. It would be hard to decide b/t WFU and UNC. The only thing leaning in UNC's favor is the 20k+ I would save per year going there. All in all, though, I would probably pick WFU over UNC. (these things really are anonymous, right?)" More from this Member | Report Response

"Overall the day was very informative and enjoyable. One of my interviews was very tense but the other two were relaxed which was nice and the faculty all had nice things to say about the school." More from this Member | Report Response

"I was impressed by the school; its facilities, curriculum, technology, faculty, etc. If it was the only school that accepted me I would gladly go without any remorse. However, Winston-Salem just doesn't feel like the place for me so if other opportunities present themselves then I would not go to wake. But if you like the south and don't mind spending four years in a quiet area then consider wake. Good thing the turnaround from interview is pretty quick." More from this Member | Report Response

"Very Positive experience." More from this Member | Report Response

"I had a great time and would definitely attend if accepted." More from this Member | Report Response

"I was not impressed with this school at all. Some of the classes that the students talked baout seemed to be a complete waste of time. Many gave the impression that they were forced to do classes and assignments that made no sense and would not serve them in their profession at all. Further, their philosophy of training "life-long learners" made me want to puke. I was waiting for someone to hug me and start singing Kum-by-yah." More from this Member | Report Response

"The oatmeal raisin cookies are the best!" More from this Member | Report Response

"The day went very well. Great cookies in the morning, summary of financial aid and free lunch. After lunch we had a quick tour of the campus and then our interviews. The interviews were mostly pleasent. They lasted only 15 minutes each so you didn't have much time to show yourself. It seemed as though they just wanted to see if you were easy to talk to." More from this Member | Report Response

"Every interviewer asked the basics: Tell me about yourself, your family, your experiences and activities, why do you want to be a doctor, how do you know, and they all asked why Wake Forest and related questions such as where is Wake on your list, would you come to Wake if I told you you were in, etc." More from this Member | Report Response

"I showed up at the hospital with my map in hand but still couldn't find my way. Finally after asking like 5 people, I found the admissions office. There were only a five other applicants interviewing on that day so it was pretty intimate. After a few presentations and lunch in the hospital cafeteria, you either have your interviews or the tour. In each interview, after 15 minutes, someone comes to knock on the door to signal time is up. Then you go back out to the lobby area and wait for the next interviewer to get done with the other applicant. The day was over at about 3, I think. " More from this Member | Report Response

"The interview experience was great. The interviewers and volunteers were very helpful. The students all seem to love it there. You meet at 945 in the admissions office, then they go over some admissions statistics, facts, etc. Then you talk with a financial aid person. After those are done, you either go on a tour or wait in the office for your 3 different interviews. Each interview is 15-20 mins, and they go by very quickly. If you didn't already take the tour before your interviews, you now go on a tour of the facilities and then your day is finished. Here's one piece of advice I have to give you all- MAKE SURE YOU EAT THE COOKIES!" More from this Member | Report Response

"pretty easy interviews, rotating every fifteen minutes between 3 interviewers was kind of repetitive, stressful" More from this Member | Report Response

"When you arrive at the Admissions Office, you will be greeted by a volunteer from the Medical Center Guild. My volunteer was extremely nice and had some good connections--her husband was chief of surgery at Wake Forest. You will have three interviews by three different people. I had one MD and two clinical faculty. Each interview lasts 15 minutes. The interviewers have a copy of your AMCAS application. Traveling from the Greensboro airport can be pretty expensive if you are taking a shuttle to Winston-Salem. There is a counter at the airport where you can request a shuttle. There is no formal student hosting program but you can ask the Admissions Office to set you up with a student host--if you wish. " More from this Member | Report Response
