What are your general comments?

I interviewed with Dr. Betz and Fitzovich. They asked me to give some info about myself (since I've graduated college, I had to tell a little about the work I'm doing now). They asked about the DO that referred me (he's on the clinical faculty at PCSOM). There was a question about my MCAT score, my trip to Haiti, and the ethical question.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
