💬 Interview Process
What is one of the specific questions they asked you?
What is Ox Phos (Oxidative Phosphorilation)?
How did you prepare for the interview?
SDN, read application, looked at website
What was the most difficult question?
None really, I had read on SDN that the Ox Phos question was asked so I knew ahead of time that it was an option although I never in a million years thought I would be aksed it :)
What impressed you positively?
The whole staff was extremely personable and they seemed to care very much about the success of the students. Also, the realization that early clinical experience is stressed in the curriculum.
What impressed you negatively?
Nothing really, except maybe the fact that the main tecahnig hospital (Tampa General) is 30 mins away. Although the fact that there are 6 hospitals in the area associated with the school can be a plus in that it provides for diversity.
What did you wish you had known ahead of time?
The student body is made up of incredible individuals that are willing to answer question with complete honesty.
