The greater your academic performance, the better the university's metrics will be. For this reason, the admissions committee at the University of Minnesota Medical School wants to choose medical school students who will be diligent in their studies and perform well on exams. Perhaps you create your own study aids. Maybe you prefer to prepare for exams in a group setting. Whatever your approach might be, take the time to walk the interviewers through your process with as much detail as possible.

"I am a well-organized student and have come up with a plan that works very well for me. When I prepare for a specific exam, I will map out the content I need to learn and divide that content over the number of days I have available to prepare. When I create a study calendar, I leave the final three days leading up to the exam to review the entire library of content. I am a big fan of study aids, as I believe they work much better than simply reading and re-reading the materials. Aids such as flashcards as also much more helpful to me than highlighting my notes. I also create practice problems, and when possible, will pair up with a fellow student to test each other in written form or verbal lightning rounds. My approach has been successful so far, as reflected in my overall GPA."
