For those of you who have interviewed at Midwestern AZ, What was it like? What type of questions did they ask? Was it open or closed file?
There doesnt seem to be much information on here about the interview process for Midwestern.
Any replies about your experience there will be VERY helpful
 
Closed file. Why Optometry? Why Midwestern? What are the difference between an Ophthalmologist, Optometrist, and a Optician? What are your goals after Optometry school? Tell me about a time you had to overcome something in your life? What are you going to do if you don't get accepted into Optometry school? Those are the questions they ask me and to the other three applicants when I interviewed there last month.
 
Thank you so much for replying! Were you accepted and what are your stats, if you dont mind me asking

That was very helpful, thank you. I was wondering, did they make you write an essay too and if yes what was the essay topic.

Thanks 😀

I would also like to know this!! The essay stages of the interviews freak me out!!

Also, to those of you who have interviewed at Midwestern, why did you choose to apply there? What do you think makes Midwestern stand out from other optometry schools?
 
I interviewed in the beginning of Dec and there was no essay. Just an interview for about 30 minutes and of course the tour of the campus.
 
I interviewed there on the 6th now I can't wait to hear back..I messed up on one of the questions..so it's freaking me out a little..hopefully i get accepted though
