"When I encountered academic difficulty in the past, I recognized the issue early and approached my professor for additional information or study resources. With these resources, I either increase the time spent reviewing the class material or engage another person to increase my understanding of the topic. For instance, during my biophysical chemistry class this year, I fell behind as we approached the subject of molecular interactions. To ensure my success, I hired a Department of Chemistry tutor. This approach was beneficial, and I gained a much clearer understanding of the subject, which improved my grade. Should I come across any difficulties while attending Wayne State University, I will not hesitate to seek outside assistance."

Before your interview with the Wayne State University medical school, consider how you persevere when things get tough in your schooling. Perhaps you reach out to other students when you encounter difficulties in your academic studies. Maybe you talk with your professors, or perhaps you engage a tutor to help you better understand the material. Discuss your approach, how it has benefitted you in the past and how you see it helping you for the next four years as a medical student.
