What are your general comments?

I had an awesome experience. The interviews were very conversational and pleasant, and it wasn't stressful at all. I love this school's program: early patient contact, incorporation of PBL, extended anatomy course so you are dissecting what you are learning about in the other classes, etc. Out of staters also have the benefit of paying resident tuition after the first year; I don't know of any other public schools that do that. So relax, be yourself, and enjoy the day.
