It was a little confusing navigating the hospital for an interview, but was solved easily enough

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

Medical school was a little crazy, construction and there was a bazaar in the lobby. The light lunch was quite good, better than I had expected!

What are your general comments?

This was my first one and I found the interviewers easy going. No big questions to solve the health care system or any ethical questions. Just have an idea of what you have learned in each experience and how that will help you in medical school
