Use these questions as a general outline to prepare for either the committee interview (medical and dental school applicants only) or for interviews with the health professional schools. It is important to practice articulating your answers out loud with a friend or tape recorder. Your responses should generally be 30 to 90 seconds in length. When being interviewed, applicants that do not answer satisfactorily are generally asked a series of questions that get at the issue! You want to practice some general questions that you think you will be asked (tell me about yourself), but not to the point that they sound memorized.
