What are your general comments?
This was my first interview and I was fairly impressed with how casual and kind the student and staff were. My first interview was an orthopedic surgeon who is a graduate of UNSOM; my second interview was a MS4. The interviews seemed more like a conversation rather than a formal interview. I wasn't too happy with the fact that I wasn't given a tour of the school/facility. I wished that I could have interviewed in Reno to see what the campus was like.
