What are your general comments?

U of T is definitely one of the top Canadian med schools and is probably worth the higher tuition. The interview day was not stressful and everyone there tried to make me feel comfortable. My interviewers were very friendly and we even shared a laugh. Overall, I had a pleasant experience and would love to attend U of T if possible.

What impressed you positively?

Proximity of several first-class hospitals, friendly med students, well-organized interview day.

What impressed you negatively?

The Medical Sciences Building had a strange numbering system for the rooms (so make sure you find your interview room ahead of time!); the lecture halls also seem a little old/run-down. Another negative aspect was the high cost of living downtown.
