What impressed you positively?
Everyone I encountered seemed to be making a very special effort to make all the interviewees feel comfortable. I didn't expect this in an interview day at all.
What impressed you negatively?
The physician I interviewed with describing the curriculum changes as "de-emphasizing the 'touchy-feely' parts of the curriculum" (a direct quote), an example given was "cross-cultural education." Seems like they're moving the curriculum towards teaching for the boards, which could be good in some ways and bad in others.
