Tell us something that the Admissions Committee would not know about you from reading your CV.
The admissions interviewer at UMMS (University of Minnesota Medical School) would like to know you apart from what is written on your CV and school transcripts. You are certainly not obligated to discuss personal matters such as your relationship status, for instance. Stick with a couple of interesting facts to show the interviewers at the University of Minnesota that you are a real person, too.
Your answer should be unique so that you are a memorable candidate! At the end of your response, remember to connect the factors you discuss and how they will ensure that you are a stellar med student and future physician.
