Well, I just had my interview and decided to update everyone since this forum has helped me so much. First off I'd like to say that there were no surprises, exactly what this forum says they ask is what they ask. Second off, the only advice I would give anyone is that DO NOT PRACTICE or DO NOT OVER ANALYZE. I wrote down all the questions and all the perfect answers, and I ended up sounding like a studdering moron. Anyway, here were the question:

1. Verify info like SS#, DOB, and address.
2. Questions about transcripts (grades, classes, etc.
3. Why are you applying for "this" semester?
4. Why do you want to be a doctor?
5. What does your family think of you coming here?
6. What are your Strengths/Weaknesses?
7. Longterm patient, terminally ill wants to die, how would you REACT? Not whether you would do it or not. I screwed this question up bigtime BECAUSE I PLANNED AN ANSWER. He totally called me out on it to!!
8. Clinical and volunteer work
9. What do you know about MUA and Nevis?

Thats basically it, he then started telling me about the programs, clinicals, school, island, etc. Then he asked if I had any questions. I didn't listen when alot of you guys warned me to don't practice too much and now I think I might pay the price. I really hope I get in, wish me luck!!

i had an interview today and the same thing done over analyze or you just end up saying too much unnecessary things. and my questions were actually completely different just to let u know but still they made it comfortable and it was more likea conversation

LOL i wrote the answers too but when I talked, miraculously it didn't sound too scripted (at least on my end). Thats the only problem with getting the questions beforehand, the problem of it sounding fake and when they throw in a new question, it completely flusters you because you had prepared for the other questions!

Hmmm... Well I think it depends on when you applied for, because in my email it said that they shipped out a hard copy as well. I'd give it a couple of days before you jump to any conclusions. Anyway, good luck and I"m sure you have nothing to worry about.
