What are your general comments?

The interview day started a little too early in my opinion but other than that it was very well put together. There was no downtime which I thought was a good thing. I honestly didn't think the interviews themselves were as incredibly laid back as people said. They seemed just like the others I had and one of my interviewers was a little harsh concerning one of my MCAT scores. It still was a good day though. I absolutely love this school and I am wondering how could any other school be better? The day ends pretty early, around 2 so that was good. All in all a wonderful experience and Ann Arbor is a really nice, affluent neighborhood.
