What are your general comments?
It was a fun weekend. They provided lost of food and everyone was friendly. The faculty members and the students all really believe in the MSTP program and want the students to succeed. The med school portion of the interview was a little weird, in which they ask questions off of the list and don't respond. But they explain why they do that. Very friendly people. MSTP faculty were all friendly and interested in the research that I've done. The only thing is that they only had donuts in the morning! NO BAGELS!!!!
