What are your general comments?
I enjoyed my visit to Chicago. The facilities were nice, the students were friendly and it really felt like an urban school. There are two longer interviews: one with a faculty and one with a student. Everyone meets for fifteen minutes with the dean of admissions and has to answer three questions: 1. Why Chicago 2. What have you done since submitting AMCAS and 3. What are you doing this year before attending med school.
