Report Response | I was asked this too

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

Comming into the interview previously reading others opnions of the school I had the impression that I would not like the school at all. But after talking to students there I really liked the school. Although the city needs development, I still liked it. I mean afterall you are going to med school for the school and not the city. And plus the students always had social events so that was cool.
