1. Welcome Dr. Jeffrey SooHoo to Admissions Straight Talk (00:00:00)

2. Can you give us an overview of the Colorado School of Medicine's curriculum? (00:01:44)

3. So I noticed there's rural medicine, global medicine, and a research option which you alluded to. Can you dive into those, perhaps other tracks that I didn't notice? (00:07:45)

4. What is the secondary like for the University of Colorado Medical School? (00:09:39)

5. Colorado School of Medicine requires the CASPER. What do you hope to learn from it that you don't learn from the MCAT, the application, or the other materials? (00:11:24)

6. Are you planning any changes to your requirements for the class that will be applying in 2025 and entering in 2026? (00:14:47)

7. Does the University of Colorado have a preference for in-state residents? (00:18:20)

8. What makes an application worthy of an interview invitation or an offer of acceptance? (00:19:31)

9. Can you share what the interview day is like? (00:24:40)

10. So the individual interview, are they interviewing with one person or with several people? And is it more of a traditional medical school interview? (00:26:15)

11. Can we go back to the group interview for a second? Can you give just a little bit a sense of what that is? (00:28:40)

12. Do you want students you admit to have both research experience and clinical exposure, or is clinical exposure really the only thing that's important? (00:29:47)

13. How do you evaluate multiple MCAT scores? (00:30:48)

14. How does the University of Colorado view letters of intent or correspondence from applicants after they've submitted their secondary either before the interview, after the interview, or if waitlisted? (00:31:06)

15. What's the most common mistake that you see applicants make, either in the primary or the secondary application, or the interview? (00:33:08)

16. How do you feel about applicants using AI or Check GPT in preparing an application? (00:35:45)

17. What are the three most important things that you think applicants should be doing to prepare themselves to apply to medical school in two years? (00:36:45)

18. You mentioned the Compass Guides at Colorado. Can you go into that a little bit? (00:39:01)

19. What would you like me to ask you? (00:41:02)
