What are your general comments?

You have information session, financial and administrative in the morning. Followed by lunch and then a tour with two students. They show you alot and it was informative. Return to admissions office and wait as interviewers come get students one by one, you have three consecutive interviews, one blind and two openfile, in no particular order. They want to find out about why medicine, leadership, volunteer, strength and weaknesses. Nothing out of left field.
