:laugh: I had actually the same thing happen at my Western interview! The behavioral based questions were going well and I was feeling quite good about my interview and then all of a sudden, "Tell me one thing about yourself." Uhh...Umm..One thing? Umm...Hold On..****!...Ok. One thing about myself....finally came up with a good answer after thinking for what seemed like 2-3 minutes (it was probably only 30 seconds or so.) I don't think I cursed out loud though.

Result: waitlist 🙄

Haha, those behavior interviews are the worst! I wouldn't be surprised if the whole thing was just a setup to spring that one trap.
 
I've got such a slew of baddies I've been thinking of and regretting ever since this interview lol. here are the big flops"

1.) Interviewer: Who is your favorite artist?

Me: Well, as for famous artists, I love Vincent Van Gogh, because, well, it is kind of wierd that he... you know... cut off his ear...... but anyway, his paintings are just so atypical for an impressionist.. blah blah blah (gives rest of decent answer)

2.) Interviewer: Where do you see yourself in ten years?

Me: Well, definitely not in the position I am in now with the picking of the right specialty, branch etc, and definitely more settled down with my choice, I mean not in a "let me take the twelve kids to soccer" settled way, but in the sense that I'd have a better idea of what I wanted out of the field, and well actually I'd just already know, I wouldn't still be figuring it out (babbles on while the Navy Captain interviewer looks amused)

I really hope I get in...
 
I actually brought up SDN in one of my interviews.

Interviewer: So what type of stuff gets talked about?

Me: Weird ethical dilemmas and whatnot; stuff we'd probably have no real way to answer.

Interviewer: Oh. Like what?

Me: Ethical dilemma example 1

Interviewer: Answers ethical dilemma. What else?

Me: Ethical dilemma example 2

Interviewer: Answers ethical dilemma. What else?

Me: ..... Ethical dilemma example 3....

Interviewer: Answers ethical dilemma.

.....................

Not awful answers I guess, since I somehow managed to remember 3, but bringing up SDN was a bad idea!
 
This isn't actually a med school interview as i'm still a premed just more of an awkward moment.

I had not been going to my intro bio class because I live like 40 minutes from my university. So any way, I wanted to drop the course as I wasn't doing to well at he time do to all the absences (attendance was part of the grade.)

Me: Hi professor, I wanted to talk to you about dropping your class.

professor: why do you want to drop.

Me🙁keep in mind I want an excused grade instead of a fail so I had to have an excuse) I am not getting the material and I want to go to med school so I feel lie I need to get a firm grasp on this.

professor: ok, well first let me say that med school is very competitive and it can be quite difficult to get in. There are some people who can easliy grasp material and those who have to work a little harder, you seem to be neither. This is a general bio class and if you can't grasp this material then you will never make it in med school, and frankly, I don't see how your going to even make it through college. 😱

He did end up excusing the grade saying, "you'll need all the help you can get" 🙁
 
It's interview season! We need more stories to :smack: :laugh: at.

I'd share one except my horrible interview wasn't really funny... it was my first mini-interview at the school and my interviewer had no conversational flow. He read down a list of questions, stone-faced, and asked clarification questions.
You know when you feel like everything you say comes out wrong? Yea...crash and burn.:boom:

My only saving grace is that my other mini-interviews didn't seem to go as poorly...

Status: pending
 
One of my interviewers was sneaky. They led me down the path of questions that were really casual and friendly and then snuck in a question that I would answer casually but horribly wrong and not what they were looking for. It went something like this:

I: Yea I see you do have a lot of research and profession work. But lets say in 5 years lets say you are practicing. How do your patients describe you?

Me: Someone that always is putting the facts first. The patient might not see me as personal or comforting but I would be good at the task at hand, just a little cold...

I: Uh... wow, never heard that from someone before


(the second I said the word 'cold' I realized what I just said and just kinda froze with my mouth open. I don't even know why I said that, I think I was still thinking about my research where my lab was kinda of like that)

Me wearing a deep red tie and a blue shirt: Well part of professionalism is how you present yourself, how you choose your words and what you wear. Like today, I decided to wear this red tie and blue shirt saying who doesn't want superman to be their doctor.

Result: ACCEPTED!

wearing ur gecko 🙂?
 
Interviewer: "What is a weakness you have that would be problematic as a doctor?"
Candidate: "I care too much"

Needless to say, bad news followed.
 
Interviewer: When was the last time you were criticized unfairly?
Me: Hmm... (long pause)
Interviewer: It's okay, take your time.
Me: Well practically any time I am criticized I can think of reasons it's unfair.. 🙂smack🙂 err.. I mean I can see it from both sides.
*Proceeds to narrate a fairly stupid example about a family argument *:bang:

But then I was accepted! haha:claps:
 
Is it bad that I am completely relying on this thread for my interview prep?

If loving this thread is wrong, I don't wanna be right...
 
Interviewing at the medical school attached to my undergrad institution:

Interviewer: Why would you want to stay in [insert name of city I did undergrad in] for another four years?
Me: Well yeah. I know (thinking... *5 second pause*)... You're right it's not New York City. But you know, there are uh, lots of opportunities for uh community-based outreach and uh social justice [I continue sounding like a canned view book for 5 minutes].
Interviewer: Well ok what do you do for FUN here?
Me: Uh... (stalling because I don't want to bring up bars and restaurants, thinking it'll sound flaky)... Oh! I know! Last summer, when I was here, I made friends with a whole bunch of townies [cringe. ****. school is known for elitism re: relationship with town-dwellers and townies is a derogatory name for them.]... I mean, you know, "townies" (I hold up my hands here and gesture the quotation marks--why?!?). [why did I just repeat that word?!?].
Interviewer: (looks really weirded out) ... you know, [City] has a lot of great bars and restaurants.
Me: [*face palm*]
 
Two other true stories:

1) I spilled my coffee on the director of admissions at a place. 8 am. He walked around the entire day with a coffee stain on his suit.

2) I had a huge booger on my upper lip (?!?!) for a good 10 minutes into an interview. the interviewer finally pauses without explanation, gets up to find a kleenex and hands it me without saying a word. huge awkward pause as I realize what's been on my face for nearly half the interview.

:laugh::laugh:

A memorable candidate to say the least! I bet it'll turn out great for you!
 
Interviewer: So tell me about [specific time in my life from application]
Me: I suppose you could say I was depressed, although I wasn't diagnosed.
Interviewer: How did you deal with that?
Me: I withdrew, mostly. (Pause) Played a lot of video games and I guess I self-medicated with alcohol.
Interviewer: *blank look*
Me: *helpless expression*

As background for this answer, the first thing I told my interviewer was that my home state had great beer. Later on, he asked what I liked to do to relax and I talked about beer again. I was trying to come across as honest, but I'm pretty sure he thought I was a raging alcoholic.

Got the rejection last night.

Oy... I feel like no matter what the interview question is, alcohol is never the answer.
 
This was at my top choice Medschool

I: So I see that you were a TA for a philosophy course. What were some of the topics you lectured on?

Me [thinking]: Oh no...what did I lecture on...it was two years ago I don't remember the nuances of Plato and Aristotle...

Me [saying]: well we talked about various philosophers, focused on Plato a fair amount

I: What concepts did you like from The Republic?

Me [thinking]: AAAAHHHHH!

Me [saying]: Um...well....I guess I found it interesting that he felt we have to lie to the general public to make government work. There are a lot of dumb people out there so I can understand the sentiment.

I: awkward pause

Me [saying quickly]: I mean, I guess Bush would have been on board for that style of government...

Me [thinking]: why would i say that

I: frowns and says "Mission Accomplished"

magikdoc said:
So at my 5th interview, I'm feeling real good... do the standard chatting up with the other interviewee's, then have my first interview with a Ph.D and that goes super well cause we just end up talking about research....

then the day goes on and I meet my second interviewer

she appears to look like a nice old lady, i assume she is a retire M.D. doing this interviewing thing for fun. But no, let me just say to NEVER ASSUME what your interviewer is like based on appearance. She takes me behind the admissions office, in a little room and sits me down.

She starts out asking nice easy questions, "tell me about yourself, oh you like sports, what did you do studying abroad... blah blah blah.."

then she hits me with "Ok now that we have that over with.... we will start the REAL interview"

meanwhile i was just thinking, come on... how hard can this be, I am a pro at interviewing now...

she asks me "You are the governor of the state, and I want you to draw up a detailed plan for a health care system, please keep things realistic... start now"

so i said "well... i endorse the idea of a universal health care system..."

"NO! WHAT DOES THAT MEAN? BREAK IT DOWN FOR ME"

(a little shocked by her tone... and facial expressions...)

"ok, well I guess you would start with implementing a policy where everyone can get screened by health professionals.."

"NO THAT IS NOT RIGHT"

(awkward pause)

(sweat drips down armpit)

(thinking about the rejection coming now...)

(omg... this day was going so well too... guess i won't be coming here)

(ok ok ok ,just keep it together...)

"well, I think it is necessary to emphasize preventative medicine in order to cut down on costs...

(interrupts) "NO THAT IS NOT RIGHT EITHER. I WANT YOU TO BREAK IT DOWNNNN FOR ME"

So basically it goes on like that for 40 minutes of her interrupting me and preaching the ideas of healthcare she has. I have to admit she was right about everything, but HOW WAS I SUPPOSED TO KNOW HOW TO CREATE A HEALTHCARE SYSTEM FOR AMERICA!?? I AM ONLY PRE-MED!! WHAT DO YOU EXPECT FROM ME!???

She even goes to say, I bet you assume I was a nice old lady eh!? I was shocked and appalled. This was probably the 2nd worst interview experience I had (the first I talked about in a previous post), and I left having a headache...

waitlisted... thank god. hope the other interviewees don't get her.

You answered like a politician, instead of giving specific solutions. tough question though. Always answer that question by starting with tort reform and dont forget to mention something about reducing costs by limiting insurance company profits. dont just say everyone should have insurance, they want to know where the money would come from.
 
I: What book are you reading right now?

Me: I'm reading [X] about epidemiologists who investigate infectious disease outbreaks. It's really fun reading about these diseases like Ebola and Tuberculosis.

I: (*shakes head and frowns*) Ebola is a tragic disease. It is just so deadly, and it kills people so gruesomely.

Me: Well, that's quite true. Let me clarify...
--
I reshaped the answer, saying that what made the book enjoyable was reading how the investigators used the lessons they learned from their investigations to propose policy changes. But I wish I had that one back and didn't come across as completely heartless.
 
I: Why did you score so low in physical science? (mcat 7 ps)
Me: uh...well...i'm not good at physics...its boring, so i didnt study for it... (then i just stared at him because I couldnt think of anything else to say)

-accepted
 
Interviewer: Would you be interested in practicing medicine in underserved rural areas after graduation?
Me: Uhhh, not really.
*awkward silence*
 
I: So, what do you do for fun?
Me: Um...I have a dog.
I: Uh huh.....*silence*
Me: *Blank stare*
I: *more silence*
Me: So....yeah....that's fun.
I: Do you have any questions for me?

-Accepted.


I have a life, I swear! Somehow I forgot all about it during that interview though.
 
Interview: Well name one of your faults or a time that you failed.

Me: (Well, how much time do you have...no wait, don't say anything too bad) Well honestly sometimes I have problems with procrastination. (****, I guess we're going the honest route)

Interviewer: (Looks at me like I'll fail all my med. school classes)

Me: Well, it never affects my work too badly; I still do goood work as you can see by my grades (closed file interview; she can't) I just lose sleep I shouldn't have to sometime. (Fail to relay to interviewer how I am getting better at this, how I now use google calendar to keep organized)

I doubt she was very impressed by that.


I also told another student interviewer that I don't study all that much. Why would I say that? I'm sure I study plenty more than most people, it just doesn't feel like it to me.
 
I: How would your friends describe you?
Me: They'd say I'm caring, blah blah blah, and maybe a little bit quirky.
I: Quirky? What do you mean?
Me: Well I can be a little bit goofy. For instance, I made up this little song and dance that I always do whenever I brush my teeth.
I: Umm...
Me: Don't worry, I won't sing it. I don't want to embarass myself that much.

Result? Accepted.
 
heres an interesting student interview..

Interviewer: yeah, i did my undergrad at Yale, but i'm not one of those typical preppy white guys with rich parents...

Me: (laughing) well you are white..

Interviewer: (looking down at his designer polo) and i am preppy

Me: and lets be honest.. your parents are loaded

pretty hilarious conversation during a student interview. he said he'd put a good word in for me and I got in a week later
 
I: How old are you again?
Me: 23
(5 second pause)
Me: o no i mean Im 22!!
I(laughing): Why'd you say 23 is your Bday soon?
Me: IN six months.....but I like to look ahead

Interviewer seemed entertained by my awkwardness lol

hope i get in!

Yea that happens to me all the time. Especialy since I don't drink, I have had no clue how old I am since I turned 21. It just hasn't been something I think about. When people ask how old I am I hesitate and think for a second which makes think I am hiding something or a pathological liar.
 
I was asked the open-ended question, "Is there anything new that you'd like to add to your file?" I responded, "Yes, I finished the Ironman!" It was relevant to my personal statement. What wasn't relevant however, was jumping out of my seat and pulling up my pant leg exclaiming, "You wanna see the new tattoo that I got to commemorate it?"

Thankfully, she thought it was a cool tattoo, *and* I got an acceptance 🙂
 
One I forgot....


I: So, how would your friends describe you?

Me: Well, I guess they'd say I'm the kind of person who's always willing to put himself out there for someone else.

I: (silence)

Me: (Damn, that wasn't enough, think think think) I guess they'd also say I'm kind of cynical (whyyy did I just say that 😱...)

I: Uhhh..

Me: 🙂eek:...) Well, I mean, I'm not actually cynical, but I guess I'm just into gallows humor (WHY LoO, WHY? :wow:).
I: Ah...

Me: Yeah... So I'm not really cynical, but I guess I can come across that way.

I: Ok.



Rest of the interview was great though. Accepted
 
After welcoming me and telling me that the interview would be very relaxed...

Interviewer: But you don't seem all that nervous. Have you had other interviews before this one?
Me: Actually, this is my 6th interview.
Interviewer: Congratulations! You must have seen some wonderful parts of the country.
Me: Yes, I've been around. (Thinking: OMG, did I really just say that?)
Interviewer: *pause* Did you really want to say it like that?

Accepted.
 
Interview: Hi, Have a seat.
Me: No thank you. (inner facepalm not thinking)
Interview:OK??? So I see you got a _ gpa?
Me: Well..*nose starts to run*
Interview: Uh. Are you OK? Do you need tissue?
Me: No thank you. (inner facepalm Im confused and nervous now)
Interview: Why do you want to attend this school?
Me: Because (wrong school name) is my top choice school!
Interview: Stare at each other like is this fool for real?
Me: *back,chest,face and ass sweating at an unbelieveable rate*
Interview:Ok thank you do you have any questions?
Me: Yes thank you..(and walk out without thinking)
I walked straight to car, cried on the way home, then smiled and told family I totally rocked the interview. Then went in the restroom, turned on the shower and sat on toliet crying...🙁 It was pretty bad.

If this is a true story, I am very sorry. 🙁
 
Going into my interview I was not terribly nervous. Part of this might be attributed to the fact that I was in a new suit and looking pretty good, which made me feel good. As I went in for my interview I was greeted by an older gentleman who instantly gave me a firm handshake and a smile and assured me he wanted the interview to be laid back and as stress-free as possible. Before sitting down he actually told me to take of my jacket and hang it up. What should have been an easy task all of sudden became the dance of a drunken butterfly as I managed to get the coat tangled behind my back with both arms stuck in the sleeves. I finally stopped fighting and looked at him with his grin, "I'm not too good at this..." "Do you need some help?" "Oh.. no.. I think if I just get my arm... **RIP**... okay.. maybe a little help."

He got up from his desk and managed to free the jacket, before I finished ripping it to shreds. The interview was surprisingly more relaxed after that, however, upon leaving I shook his hand and exited closing the door behind me. I made my way down the stairs towards my next interview, but suddenly I realized I had forgotten my jacket in his office. I quickly run back to find him standing in the hallway with it. "Forgetting something." "Eh... I thought it might be safer if you hung on to that."

that description of it made me laugh so hard... i would totally do something like that.
 
you said yes when you should've said no, and no when you should've said yes. was this the whole interview? do you have other interviews in the future?[/QUOTE]
I had another nightmare after that a week later.I drove to the interview drinking 3 big reds and staying focus and hype. Then I entered the room...
Interview: Good afternoon, nice day huh?
Me: Yeah its nice out. (with a huge grin)
Interview: ??? (slight look of disgust on face)
Interview: So.. tell me about yourself.
Me: Blah blah blah yada yada yada
Interview: ??? (same look on face with a curious stare)
Me:* why are they looking at me like this* stomach boiling with gas from soda and butterflies
Interview: So tell me about this on your app
Me: Huh.. *too focused on holding gas within my body, almost pulled a ass muscle*
Me: Eyes began to water and I could not hold it back. The more I tried to think happy thoughts the more red and watery my eyes got.
Later it was over and I stood up knowing if I dare take a step I would blow a whole in my pants. They shook my hand looking at me from head to toe and gave me a eyebrow raising look. I walked toward door pooting with every step and I KNOW they heard them.😕 It smelled like bigred and failure. I went to restroom and noticed I had on a brown and grey shoe like a f*ing *******! Thats why the awkward look when I left and my teeth was the color of an apple from the soda! I wish they said something so I could have explained.🙁 Interviews just isnt my thing or god hates me...

Dude, you're a mess...


I'm not quite sure I'm buying both of your tales, but if they really did happen, I wish you the best next time.

You might want to meet a psychologist/psychiatrist to see if you can work through some of your anxiety issues.
