What are your general comments?

The whole interview day is very succinct and to the point. We started promptly at 9:15 AM and saw a 15 minute computer presentation. Immediately after the presentation we went directly to the interviews. This very much took me by surprise. The admissions staff, faculty and student body were very friendly and there was a much more closer and intimate environent than the other schools. This was my third interview and I learned that choosing a medical school is not a matter of choosing the 'best' school but instead, finding the best fit and environment where you are most comfortable and will find success. Attending UK would allow me to live 15 minutes away from campus, and the home prices and cost of living of Lexington can't be beat. The interview was on a Saturday and by Thursday, I rec'd a call notifying me of my acceptance. I am now a Wildcat!!!
