"I'm completely paraphrasing these questions, because I don't quite remember them. Do you have anything else you would like me to know about you? " Report Response | I was asked this question too
"Why medicine?" Report Response | I was asked this question too
"What are your hobbies? But like I said, most of the questions are specific to your own experiences." Report Response | I was asked this question too
"It's been awhile, but all the questions were very specific to my application. I wasn't really asked too many general questions. I guess why my one of my MCAT sections scores was so low in the first place." Report Response | I was asked this question too
"There weren't any difficult questions. Although there was an activity I had listed on my application that had nothing to do with the medical field that I was asked about, and I was surprised that he had asked about it because nobody in previous interviews had ever cared about the non-medical aspects of my application. But it was a very conversational question. Asking what I liked about the teaching, and I had never thought about it consciously before, but it was a fun question." Report Response | I was asked this question too
"I read up on the generals of health care (wasn't asked any questions about health care), reviewed my amcas and uva applications, and my prepared questions and answers I had made up beforehand. " Report Response
"The sincerity of my interviewers. They weren't trying to make me nervous at all, but genuinely wanted to know about me. I love UVA in general though, the location, the community, the environment, and the people." Report Response
"Do not eat a brie and ham sandwich at Cville coffee for dinner the day before your interview. " Report Response
"I discovered I had food poisoning the night before my interview, and ended up throwing up the majority of the night. " Report Response
"I enjoyed it a lot. I felt that they had a real glimpse of me by the end of the interview, and the whole interview was very conversational, which was natural. My interviewers were genuinely sincere people as well." Report Response
