What impressed you positively?

"The interviewers seemed to know a lot about me- enough to care to ask me about very specific things." Report Response

What impressed you negatively?

"I felt like they didn't really pursue questions to the point where I could convey myself to a satisfactory point. For example, they asked what the "status of medical schools in MI is" (I'm from MI), and after answering their question directly, I never got the chance to tell them how my decision would lie if I received acceptance both at a MI school and at WVU. The interviewers were very nice but also rather dry." Report Response

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

"Not much really." Report Response

What are your general comments?

"This was my first interview and I guess it was an overall good experience. Leaving the interview, I felt a little puzzled about the half-pursued questions, but I guess they were satisfied with my answers and I know that I gave it my best. I really loved Ruby hospital and would love to attend WVU. I really appreciate the fact that they will let us know our status as soon as possible and like the free mug! I can now rest knowing that God is in control- don't know what I'd do if I didn't have that!" Report Response
