What impressed you positively?

It wasn't as prison-like as I had been told to expect.

It seems like it's really hard to get a chair.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

The class is really competitive with eachother and the doctors encourage it. It seems like a really negative atmosphere.

What are your general comments?

The interviewers were so antagonistic. Everyone wants to go to UF because it's cheap and they know it. They barely listened to my answers to their questions and kept baiting me to say negative things about the other interviewees from my university that were also there that day.
