An Overlooked Key to Medical School Admissions

Applicants frequently make the mistake of preparing for the interview as if it were an exam. Compiled lists of questions and prepared answers to each question are not the best way to prep for the interview. While it is a good idea to have general ideas about answers to possible questions, its best to not sound overtly rehearsed.

Mission Viejo, CA -- (SBWire) -- 09/16/2013 --There are many steps along the path to gaining admissions into medical school. One key step of the medical school application process is the interview. The interview is an opportunity for the admissions committee to meet applicants, assess their interpersonal skills, and get to know them on a personal level. During the interview, applicants will have the opportunity to demonstrate their commitment to the medical profession and desires for pursuing medicine. Medical school applicants will also have a chance to discuss a variety of additional questions ranging from trivial issues such as favorite books and movies to opinions on controversial issues like universal health care or stem cell research.
