For those who have already interviewed, what was it like? What kind of questions were you asked? I couldn't find a recent thread on this.

That link in the first answer (http://www.studentdoctor.net/schools/?view=veterinary) is amazing! Wow. Huge thanks to everyone who's contributed.

Hey everyone,
I found some sample questions in three different pdf flies online, like an hour before my interview, but I'm so glad I did. Wish I had had more time to review them before my interview, but the time I did have helped me alot I believe!
The one question I stumbled on was the current events in veterinary medicine, plus they asked about the legislation probabilities about the puppy mills. These were my hardest ones because I didn't spend enough time searching! I did get on the ksu alternate list.....so if you are interested in the questions, just pm me your email and I will send you the three pdf files. Some of them have similar questions on all three but there are like over 100 questions to consider and think about. Let me know🙂

I think most of my questions from my two previous interviews were readily available on the Interview Forum from SDN. I will say, however, that there was a question that threw me for a loop and really shouldn't have--so I'll share it in the hopes that it helps others avoid my bumbling, contradictory, mess of an answer 😳
In the very last paragraph of my personal statement I concluded a sentence using the words "humane agriculture." I honestly did not put a whole lot of thought into those words as they weren't a very big part of what I was trying to say in my statement. I was however, asked to define what I thought humane agriculture was. This is something I have thought about, but hadn't thought about how I would talk about it if I were asked the question at a big agricultural vet school.
All this is to say, really make sure you can talk intelligently about every word in your application/statement etc. because even if you're a relatively smart individual, the high-pressure interview situation can reduce you to an incoherent idiot <---I'm a case in point 🙂
