What impressed you positively?
NEMC is great, library facilities, great student-faculty relationship, really nice professors
What impressed you negatively?
obviously the cost...but if you're gonna end up paying so much for a private med school or an out-of-state med school tufts is worth the extra money. the extra cost is basically for cost of living.
What did you wish you had known ahead of time?
dual degree programs sound really interesting. especially the fletcher degree since it's such a great, world-reknown school.
What are your general comments?
there is nothing to worry about at this interview. you leave very informed about the school, the interviews were really laid back, and you get to spend time in boston, possibly. i know one person who had the interviewer who asked random questions e.g. what is life, what is empathy/sympathy - see prior posts. perhaps the hardest question i heard that someone else was asked was, why should we not accept you here. but i left the interview day with tufts as one of my top choices.
