So your research sounds really interesting... Can you elaborate more on it and tell more about the details of your research?
So, you talk about (in your essay) this long standing question about if healthcare should be a priviledge or a right? Tell me your experience in both fields and how you feel about it.

What was the most interesting question?

No question that was interesting but... one question that was asked of me was more of an advice. "So you write about eventually influencing health care policy, how will you prepare for that?"

The cost of living in the area. And there seemed to be a high percentage of married people in the school.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

I wish each branch of the service will present their selling points of their service more. Self research needed to be done in this department

What are your general comments?

It was a great experience since it was my first interview. The Interviewer was very nice and helped calm me down and asked alot of questions about myself. They made a point that they were also selling the school as much as I was selling myself. In the morning, a Col. (forgot his position) came and summarized what we will be experiencing during our 4 years here. He gave advice on how we should view our selves as doctors in the military and our role as advisors. Another officer came and spoke to use about balancing life and career and also introduced the greater Waashingotn DC area and it's life style. Over all they were really welcoming and great school. I was also impressed how the people of admissions open their doors for us to visit.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
