What are your general comments?

It was positive - I was pretty nervous but set at ease by the interviewers. There were a few med students in the waiting room. The Dean of Admissions was also in the waiting room chatting with people. It was a good opp to ask questions - talk with students, dean and other interviewees.

What impressed you positively?

The interviewers made me feel very comfortable. They were kind and considerate. They challenged me but made me feel as though my thoughts, experiences and ideas were impressive and important.

What impressed you negatively?

There was a lot of info from current students about drinking and parties - this was good and bad ... I would have liked to learn more about the school and maybe less about what kinds of parties they throw and how much everyone likes to get drunk together. It did, however, make me feel as though the environment was supportive and not brutally competitive.
