What are your general comments?

very helpful staff. seemed concerned about helping you fund your med school experience. 12 co-interviewees in my group so really liked the more intimate experience. went on tour of school (very short, and the student tour guide was less than impressive). great tour of 2 of the hospitals where students would do rotations and clerkships. very nice children's hospital. lunch at the hospital with a student guide, then went back to main campus for interviews. met with the dean of minority affairs and the assistant director of admissions. one interviewer only asked me one question about myself and the other two questions were about health care. the second interview was much more comfortable and standard because she asked about specific things about my background.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
