<p>for people who have had a medical school or program interview, what do you think was the hardest question?</p>
<p>What do you think of the weather?</p>
<p>Well, dear, I'm freezing my bottom off, and I want to go back to my sunny Southern arena, but you know what...even thought it looks absolutely horrid out...lol</p>
<p>tell me about yourself</p>
<p>ohh i agree w/ you cirohpue. my first interview started off with that question and i just blanked for about ten seconds. i was thinking...should i start w/ my name? my interests? where i came from? ahh...it was not good. but i also think that is the easiest question to prepare (and one that i definitely should have thought of.)</p>
<p>"why should i pick you over the girl that i interviewed before you, or the applicant i'm interviewing after you? What will you give back to the program that they can't?"</p>
<p>Brooklyn BA/MD</p>
<p>My interesting question (Interviewer was a recent grad and was pretty good looking herself)...
Question: You're a good looking guy. How will you concentrate on your studies with all those girls after you? Come on, your looks and becoming a doctor - watch out...
Answer: I'll try my best. I've survived high school (random laughter...)</p>
<p>hydrogen - haha. that's great.</p>
<p>as for me:</p>
<p>You and 5 of your peers are on an ethics committee to decide the fate as a whole of a man who was in a serious accident. There are many complications, and there is a full scenario you must read. Discuss amongst yourselves and decide whether the man lives or dies. We will ask you questions to progress the discussion.</p>
<p>Temple University interview 1</p>
<p>why seven years instead of eight?</p>
<p>Question: If you were a superhero who would you be and who would you save?
Answer: Yea...</p>
<p>Question: what will your peers find surprising about you that they dont already know?
Answer: (in my mind) crap how the hell should i know</p>
<p>did a lot of you guys have case study questions? (like the one posted by Evilbooyaa) i thought they only ask those for med school students b/c we haven't studies anything regarding the consequences of having multiple diseases yet.</p>
<p>from my experience (1 interview), the temple interview is not the norm. Most interviews are not as intense and just ask basic questions.</p>
<p>lol yea temple was interesting</p>
<p>'why do you want to be a doctor' and then after my answer 'why not another medical profession like a nurse'</p>
<p>whats the most difficult adversity you ever faced?...I havent really had any hardships throughout high school</p>
<p>what would stop you from going to med school and becoming a doctor?</p>
<p>...death?
paralysis...</p>
<p>the end of the world?</p>
<p>getting weeded out by organic chemistry class?</p>
<p>hahaha....that would be the practical answerXD</p>
<p>organic chemistry = end of the world..
so yes :)</p>
