What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

I was pretty prepared. I went a day early to check things out and to make sure I was in the right place. They admissions office had to change my interview time and location due to grand rounds. Nothing was too surprising. I would suggest leaving your info packet in the lobby when you go on the tour. If you feel you need a notepad, which you don't, use a pocketsized one so that you can use both hands taking your coat on and off.
