The interviewers want to know how your education, up to this point, has prepared you for attending Brody Medical School at East Carolina University. Whereas many medical schools require a bachelor's degree to enter, Brody Medical School offers degrees at the baccalaureate, master's, specialist, and doctorate levels. Discuss what interests you most, and the most significant challenges you've faced and overcome on your journey. Tie that into where you want your journey to lead you next.

"I am very proud of my achievements during my undergrad education. Those courses added so much value that I will bring to my graduate program. My best courses included X, Y, and Z. I feel that I excelled in these because they are related to the medical specialty I plan to end up in. As far as areas of improvement, I can better myself in terms of time management. I overextended myself last semester with volunteer opportunities, and my study time suffered slightly. Now that I have identified the reason behind my time management challenges, I will only see improvement, moving forward."

"The basic sciences are the core courses for any pre-med student, and I feel that I have shown in my GPA that I am well above average in my ability to excel in these courses. However, because I have spent so much time on those courses, you will see that my liberal arts courses have taken a back-seat concerning my GPA. This result is because of the importance I have placed on my basic science courses."
