Hi All,

I have an interview at tufts this friday. Any one out there who can guide me on the interview process at tufts. What do they ask, what they are looking for...

Any information highly appreciated.
 
i personally havent gone to tufts for an interview but have heard from friends who have interviewed that they ask u what sub-speciality u were most interested in and why, how u like the US and what u have been doing here during the time u have been here. some people were asked whether they had any questions regarding the program itself, what they thought of the program etc. i think it depends on who is interviewing u. the earlier they call u, the more chances u have of getting in is the feeling i have so far (seeing the trend). tufts does post its minimum score requirements on their website , but i do know a student or two who has one or two points less than the minimum and still got in- so everyone out there - keep ur hopes up and go for it!

also on the interview day, they let u have lunch with the students already enrolled in tufts (ur seniors if u r lucky) and let u get to know them a little bit....so that way, u have a few people to keep in touch with that way and know a few of ur seniors in advance.

i think as soon as u go there, they show u around the school (a person from admin does that), and then u have the interview with faculty, and then the lunch with the seniors. the exact schedule may vary depending in which slot they interview u.

hope this helps.
