What are your general comments?

Got their at 9:00. Had my interview at 9:30. Went back to the conference room and chatted with the other applicants (really friendly group). Went on a tour with a 4th year. It was a little long and we didn't see the hospitals even though they are connected to the school. Had lunch where the dean came and spoke. Then had a financial aid talk. That was it, some people had their interviews in the afternoon instead.
