Large crowd of interviewees ~25. Started with 8AM tour with students. Nothing special. Just a typical med school. From 9AM-11:30AM, we had a bunch of people talk to us about housing, curriculum, joint degree programs, and the admissions process. 11:30-noon = lunch. Noon-1PM = student interview. 1-2 = get to UCI medical center (only some of us had to go there for our faculty interview). 2-3 faculty interview.
