What impressed you negatively?

the facilities seemed old. very retro.

wear comfortable shoes!

What are your general comments?

the first interviewer did not ask me anything about me. she continued to grill me about the similiarities between doctors and nurses. she almost sounded like she was trying to convince me quit the road to med school. my second interviewer was a PhD, MD in Psychiatry. He was very very soft spoken and attentive and asked me questions about myself and why i want to be a physician! *whew*

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
