The interviewers want to know which considerations you put in before sending your application to Texas Tech University. They really do not want to hear that you blindly sent out a million applications, hoping that something would stick. Share with the interviewers the consideration you put into your application.

"I was sure to conduct a great deal of research before applying to Texas Tech University. I started by interviewing some alumni I know, and I also spoke with a couple of your current students in the medical program. Last year I attended the open house here as well. Your school left a very positive impression on me, which is why I chose to apply here."
