After being on quite a few interviews, I can tell you that this about covers it.

Be prepared to elaborate on anything on your application- and I can't remember if I saw questions on teamwork, but that may come up as well.

Also be ready to address any area of your application that 1) doesn't tie in with the rest, or 2) is lacking.

good luck!

Student Doctor Network website has a great "Interview Feedback" tab where applicants post comments on the interview experiences they had for a particular school. You can browse and click into whichever school you are interested in and go to the "Questions" section listed under each school...there you will find a good size database of interview questions. Good Luck.

Our affiliate studentdoc.com has a good medical school interview forum, with a big number of questions.

ZoomInterviews med has many mock med school interviews on video.

Pre-interview preparation is very important for medical interview. You need to be prepared with copies of your resume or CV and other credentials. You can also refer the website to familiarize yourself with the history. Be prepared for the common questions that may be asked.

Hi,
I am also very interested in this subject, but the reference is very limited. You can share documents as well as experience? Thanks!

Hi I am trying to schedule medical school interviews. My question is where it is feasible to schedule them back to back. I have two schools about 3 hours distance and wondered if I would be just to drained to try and have one for example on Wednesday and the next on Thursday.

I live across the US from the schools and I am trying to cluster as many together as possible but I am concerned it may be to much

Can you take a couple of days between interviews? Be a bit more expensive with an extra night of hotels but I should imagine that a days break to relax and reflect would be a good idea.

I interviewed at schools across the country from where I was living, so I scheduled four in a row. It was not a problem, really. Interview days tend to be fun; the interviewers are usually kind, you get free lunch and sometimes breakfast, and you meet current students. Also, you'll have downtime because it doesn't take all day, so you can relax, rest, and prepare for your next interview by researching the schools.
If you have to travel for interviews, spreading them out is in my opinion a very bad idea, in terms of both extra cost (plane ticket prices are rising) and extra disruption to your life.
