What are your general comments?

My overall experience was great. It was my first interview so I was a little nervous, but both interviews were so laid back. They were more like conversation. I wasn't nervous during them at all. I stayed with a host after the applicant host program which was great, b/c she took me out and showed me the town a little bit and then I was able to ask her and all her other friends what they think about the medical school.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
