What are your general comments?

My interviews went really well. My first interviewer briefly touched on my interest in Medicine, but the rest of the interview we talked about New Orleans, Mardi Gras, and about the school's curriculum. It was a very friendly and relaxed interview. I really connected with my second interviewer (Assistant Dean of Admissions) and we talked about my family, where I'm from, background, what I want to do, etc. Overall I had a great interview experience. I was also fortunate enough to find out that I was accepted about 10 minutes after my interview (however I was told that this is definitely not the norm and that they don't offer admission like this). Great school, even better people, amazing experience.
