What impressed you positively?

The facilities are pretty decent and the medical school housing sounds like it is very reasonable.

What impressed you negatively?

The students who did my tour were not very impressive. One bragged about sleeping in class all the time and another asked all of us whether we really wanted to come to Rush or if our interview was just a test-drive. Also, they didn't have a good place for us to have lunch because the room they usually use was full and they didn't want to ask the people in there to leave.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

What are your general comments?

Overall, the interviews day went well. For the most part the interviewers asked pretty standard questions but were less "conversational" than I expected.
