What impressed you positively?

It was my first interview, so I was just stoked that everyone was so friendly and doing so much to welcome me. Also, other applicants seem to be great people. Facilities were fantastic, and though it's in the Midwest, Indy isn't shut off from civilization.

It's kinda fun to interview for med school!

What are your general comments?

One interview conducted by a doctor (OB/GYN) and an admissions committee lackey. Great experience, friendly people all over the place that really believe in their mission to serve others: their campus reflect this. Too bad I didn't get in.
