| I have had four intervies so far: harvard, upenn, princeton, and tcnj/umdnj 7 year med program.
One of the things I have learned from the interviews that I would like to pass on is to be confident. The interviews don't expect you to be amazing or the next einstein of this planet, they just want to know a bit about who you truly are.
They ask why u chose that school? you could be like me and say the honest answer, or you could suck up. I dont know what truly works, but if i think they would appreciate honest in a more professional way. What I mean by this is that if an interviews asks: Why princeton/harvard/this college?
If i had to be genuine i would say: The text book answer is that because it is a great school, but i would like to go to your school because your school has a good reputation and i have good chances of getting a job out there if i attned your school.
College interviews are (after the essay) your only chance to make yourself known to the college. You should use them wisely, and see what works for you. |
