Is reading the school's website a sufficient amount of research for interview?

Should I research the schools more than this?

I know why I picked my schools, but I don't want to go in there with the least knowledge of all the interviewees.

Should I do more than reading the website of the school? Any suggestions for my research into the individual programs?

Thanks. 🙂
 
Yes, reading the website is enough for an interview

I'm interviewing at Nova and I always hear that people love the school, that's one of the main reasons I applied. I read over the website and of course, the new facilities are amazing.

Here are some of the questions I am researching:

Does anyone know exactly what kind of research they do? Do they make it easy for students to do research?

Is there somewhere where I can find the amount of students that pass the boards, specialize, etc?
 
Those are generally questions you ask at the interview unless you can get in touch with a current student prior to the interview

okay , yeah I don't really want to over prepare. I know that I am truthful when I say I would like to go there and I can think of my honest answers why. So any other facts would really just be secondary and not really important.

I'll answer your one question based off of my interview there and the fact Im really interested in research. They do some pretty sweet research on stem cells. I know they were saying they have exclusive rights to a certain lattice they use to grow stem cells because one of their researchers came up with the model and patented it. I also heard its relatively easy to choose a research project of your interest too.

To answer your question, yes, I believe reading the website is sufficient for the interview.
