2 out of 10

What are your general comments?

I had a very pleasant time. During the tour, we were brought to the anatomy lab and got to see a cadaver. The tour itself was very informative and both the medical students giving the tour and the interviewees were very friendly. Unfortunately, one of the interviewees had told a story where he had received a "stress interview", but my experience was completely different.
