What are your general comments?

I've always loved Chicago and have known that Feinberg is a great school so I didn't think I could develope any more appreciation for it... but I was wrong! I love it there! I even forgot that I was in another state after just a couple of hours because it just felt like home. Personally, I like the dorm (but I didnt' eat there so go figure). The hospital is just gorgeous. And the cadaver lab! Yeah that's not a complete thought. Anyhow, the individual interview is very very comforting and relaxing and the panel interview is very fun. The great thing about being in a group interview is that if you are asked a question that you can't immediately answer, you can always have them go on to someone else and return to you later. I was reminded by the Dean that as much as we are trying to impress the interviewers, they are at the same time trying to impress us too. so relax! have fun!
