School's reputation.
What impressed you negatively?
Price ($50,000-$60,000)/year. The host told us to solicit our aunts and uncles for money (pathetic). One of my interviewers was the interviewer from hell. Very large focus on academic medicine. I didn't like the Hyde Park area either.

Price of the university.
What are your general comments?
Two of my interviews were fine, but the third was the worst in my life. The interviewer kept harassing me and questioning my answers to all questions, frowning at things I was saying. After that interview, I became completely uninterested in the school.
