What are your general comments?
The interviewers were really nice. I'm not sure I made it clear above--they interviewed me 2-on-1 (one was an M3, the other a professor), such that I was interviewed by a group (not that I was in a group of interviewees). The interview was focused on my reasons for pursuing medicine, which was fine, except that this lasted for 65 minutes and I did the majority of the talking. It was an adventure and a positive experience nonetheless.

Since my dad had attended WSU way back when, I was asked what his perceptions were regarding how the school had changed. Thank god I had visited Detroit with the folks the weekend before!

Read the interview feedback of my kind predecessors and considered how I would answer questions they had been asked. Looked at WSU website. MSAR.
What was the most difficult question?
If I might have been just as happy/fulfilled in the long run if I had stayed in the School of Architecture.
