How did the interview impress you?

Positively 🙂

What was the stress level of the interview?

4 out of 10
0 = Low Stress, 10 = High Stress

What are your general comments?

It was a nice day. Breakfast with the faculty gives you a chance to calm down. The interviewers were friendly and laid back, not grilling you at all. I love this school and the area so much. I found out today that I was accepted, and I am definitely going to go there next fall!
💬 Interview Process

What is one of the specific questions they asked you?

Why do you want to be a DO? What schools did you apply to other than WVSOM? How would you decide where to go?

What was the most interesting question?

A question about why one of my MCAT sections was so much lower than the others (biological sci...and I'm a bio major)

How did you prepare for the interview?

Read about the school, SDN, reviewed my applications.

What was the most difficult question?

None were really that difficult or unexpected.

What impressed you positively?

Everyone there is so friendly and down to earth, not snobby at all. They want their students to succeed. A family-like feeling.

What impressed you negatively?

Not a thing really

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

That there was no need for me to be so nervous about the interview. It was very laid back just like everyone told me. Be ready to ask them questions and it will take the heat off you. They will talk and talk.
