1)What's your favorite thing about Touro?
2)What do you feel separates Touro from other schools?
3)General/specific advice about the interview
4)Approx. interview-to-acceptance stats? I only ask because I get a little paranoid about something when I really want it, and I just need to feel somewhat good about my chances there.
Thanks to all! 😀 😀
1) my fav thing about touro has to be the atmosphere. everyone is always willing to help each other out. the prof's spend tons of time and are very accessible. our gross anatomy profs come in and help in the lab every weekend (you just gotta know when to find em there). the students all help each other a ton. last years class gives us their stuff, and is always there to answer any questions we have...and this years class...well, we rock! overall, its a very supportive atmosphere.
2) a lot of things, obviously. we just started a cadaver prep program, we are in an area with an extremely high demand, so we have a ton of opportunities available, the atmosphere, the strip
(we do take advantage of living 10 minutes away from the strip), and the faculty
3) always have a ton of confidence in your answer, and make sure that there is some way you can justify what you are saying. in my interview at tunv, my interviewer asked me if i believed we should shift towards a system of single unit health care (or something like that, i still have no idea what that means). i was clueless, so i said no (i figured if it was that good an idea, i might have heard of it). then he said why not. i gave a super general answer, something about how although that might benefit some, it will still leave many populations in a less than spectacular situation, and in my opinion, the benefits did not outweigh the disadvantages...blah blahblah...you get it.
4) no clue on stats. sorry
good luck, and see you next week!
