How did you prepare for the interview?

"Well, I forgot to reread my secondary--don't forget to do this! They will probably ask you about it! Anyway, luckily the interviewer that asked me about it phrased it so as to remind me what I had written--turns out I remembered most of it anyway--I was just nervous when in the morning I realized that I hadn't reread it." Report Response

What impressed you positively?

"The admissions office woman is very very nice--I also liked that they took our pictures for our ID cards--it made everything more personal. The first year lecture hall is beautiful. One of my favorite things about the "medical school building" itself." Report Response
