What impressed you positively?

the school is really nice and they've spent alot of money updating everything and trying to impress the LCME.

What impressed you negatively?

Not too much research going on at RF.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

I wish I had known the format of the interview.

What are your general comments?

The interviews were really well done because they didn't have time restrictions. You went into a room with the interviewer, and the interview went on as long as either of you cared to continue chatting. It was nice to be able to fully explain things, but I wish I had known that's what it would be like so I could have prepared to talk about certain things in my app. Intererstingly, although the interview is open-file, neither interviewer ever opened the folder during the whole time we were talking. One was a faculty interview, another by a fourth year med student.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
