What impressed you positively?

My host was amazing! She had so much to offer in advice about the school. The Grady cafeteria was actually decent, and all the admissions people were super nice.

What impressed you negatively?

The tour was actually pretty short. We didn't have a chance to see a lot of the Emory campus. Also, the tour guide mentioned that you don't get many clinical opportunities outside of Grady and Emory Hospitals.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

How low stress the group interview is. All the questions focused on things in your personal statement or activities you mentioned in response to "Tell me about yourself."
