By understanding your strongest areas of interest, the interviewers can predict which courses you will enjoy most at Tulane University and how you will fit into their student population and culture. They also want to gain insight into where you may struggle so they can offer additional support if needed. Talk about your favorite and least favorite areas of medicine so far, tying your answer into courses offered at Tulane, if possible.
Tulane University Medical School provides a diverse selection of courses in numerous medical fields, including anatomy, pharmacology, pathology, microbiology, and others. Additionally, they offer specialized courses in subjects like global health, tropical medicine, and public health. If you have not already done so, visiting their official website or reaching out to the school directly for a comprehensive list of their course offerings before your interview would be beneficial.

"At this point in my studies, I am most interested in Pediatrics as I have always been passionate about helping children. I bring the compassion that is required for that area of medicine. Also, most of my volunteer experience has been around children's issues. The area of medicine that I find to be my least favorite so far is Pathology. I have not excelled in bio-science; however, I have hired a tutor to ensure my grades remain above average regardless of my natural interest."
