What are your general comments?

I was really nervous because this was my first one but everyone tried to make us as comfortable as possible. Dr. Haight was GREAT! if you've had any doubts about being a doctor- he'll erase them for you with his talks! I stayed at the best western, so I got to know everyone before the group interview. The tour of campus was nice. During the interview I was the only student who didn't get asked personal questions about research, or my file. Most of my questions were theoretical. But I still got in- yay! Like Dr. Haight said- the interviewers already know your answer, they just want to know how you react and explain. Great day overall- my impression of the school improved.
