<p>I really need some advices and help from you about the interview to Medical programs. How important is it? I have good stats and good test scores, but I get really nervous when people start digging into my baggage and ask personal questions. Will a bad interview at, say for example Brown PLME, kill my chances of getting into the program?? What kind of questions are usually asked? </p>
<p>I really need some help. Thanks ahead of time.</p>
<p>College interviews are good!!! Do them!!!</p>
<p>I just had a really good interview at UChicago that definitely changed my mind about interviews. I did an interview with someone in the admissions office during my visit. I thought it would just be me asking questions but instead my interviewer asked me tons of weird/crazy questions and really got to know me. It turned out so well that he said I was a "stellar candidate" and had me meet my regional representative (the 1st person who will read my app). So...that definitely increased my chances of getting in. They really liked me and I got a lot of info about how I can improve my app (he asked for my stats and told me what was good and what needed to be highlighted on the app). So the moral of the story is GET AN INTERVIEW. Don't listen to people who say interviews are nothing. If possible, when you schedule a college visit, schedule an interview at the same time. It's worth it! And you don't have to dress up...I wore jeans and so did all the other kids.</p>
<p>thanks, jimbob</p>
<p>anyone else with any advices??? Anyone with experience in Med Program interviews????</p>
<p>do colleges expect you to pay for all the costs to travel to that school for the interview ? there's no help in that, is there ?</p>
<p>People are more than stats--that is the purpose of an interview. Don't get worried because there are no right/wrong answers. Just answer truthfully and that's fine.</p>
