What impressed you negatively?

Some students didn't seem to like living in san antonio very much. I missed the last part of the tour (through the med school itself) because I had to go to my first interview.

First year begins July 1.

What are your general comments?

The dean and students were all extremely helpful and friendly. The question-and-answer session with the 4th years was very interesting and informative. The interview locations were spread out all over the school and hospital and were kind of hard to find, but the interviews themselves were not stressful at ALL - both just asked questions about what I wrote in my personal statment. Since there was so much time in between interviews, we had plenty of time to talk and get to know each other.
