What are your general comments?

The day runs from 9 AM to 5 PM. In the morning a lot of information about the school is given (USMLE scores-very impressive!), tour to the brain institute to see STAN, and a visit to the Harrell Center and to the Marren room. Then comes lunch with other medical students. In the afternoon, you have two interviews, a tour of the hospital, and a tour of the medical school facilities. People are very friendly, which helps you relax before and during the interviews. Students seem very happy with their choice and do a great job promoting their school.
