💬 Interview Process
How did you prepare for the interview?
Read the admissions brochure, looked up the curriculum and other information on the website, talked to friends that go to school there, read over my application.
What was the most difficult question?
Where else are you applying/interviewing? Difficult only because I feel it may hurt my chances of getting in at ECU.
What impressed you positively?
Friendly staff/students/faculty, nice facility linked with the hospital, good, cheap food at the cafeteria...definitely would be a more affordable lifestyle than at many other schools.
What impressed you negatively?
One of the students giving the tour was spouting statistics that I know aren't true ("over 50% of the students go into family medicine"), so I felt I had to take everything he said with a grain of salt. The other student that gave us a tour/escorted us to lunch was very friendly and helpful, though.
What did you wish you had known ahead of time?
Well, I wish the website would post more information about the curriculum - it's ABCF, traditional class-based schedule, full days. No big deal since I got to ask about it at the interview though.
