the panel interview was actually pretty easy, moreso than one on one interviews perhaps. i don't really think it is a good way to get to know the candidates however. and the group problem solving while the panel watches is just silly.
overall i just would not be happy going to school there, but it just depends on what you're looking for. the curriculum and hospital are nice-but i don't think i could stand going to school with some of those people i met and i don't like the idea of the dorms (which are not required, but are encouraged---from what i could tell)

How does the panel interview work? What kind of problem do you solve in front of the panel?

What schools have live in dorms/ cheap housing? I actually wouldn't mind living in dorms..it was fun when i was in college...kind of miss it actually...minus the bathroom situation where people would crap and not flush...or pile the toilet paper in the toilet and dry it out...and then someone would crap in it and you would see these logs... dang that was disgusting...

I heard that a lot of students actually stay on the Evanston campus and then ride the "L" in for school. Is this true? Is this feasible even? I think i heard the ride is only around 20 mins or so.

And if they did, would they be like, "This ho had the chance to come here before - there's no way we're gonna interview her again!"

Ok I've seen Northwestern's main campus once before but never physically seen their med skool (which apparently is at some great distance from the university, right?), and they just gave me an interview (in december, so i will be freezing my arse off). I applied there partly because my boss is from chi town and absolutely demanded that I apply to at least one school there (she's like my second mommy ). So, where EXACTLY is the med school if its not in Evanston? What part of the city is it in? I dont know the city very well although I've had an awesome time there before, any insights on the area would be appreciated

which airport should i fly to for an interview at NW...Ohare or Midway?
I know that southwest has really good deals with midway, and american has awesome deals with ohare? Just wondering which airport is more convenient? Are there any shuttles or public transportation from any of these airports that can lead me to the med school?
