What impressed you positively?

Everything. I can't get over how nice the students were, and I got the sense that Emory really cares about it's students. The presentation was actually pretty good, and the admissions staff is great! Grady Hospital was huge and seemed like a great place to learn. Students seemed very cooperative and happy to be there. The campus is beautful. There are just great opportunities here.

What impressed you negatively?

New medical school building won't be completed until Fall 2006, but it should be great once it's done. The panel interview was intimidating for me.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

Not really sure. Stay with a host! Mine was really welcoming and it was great to meet some of the students.

What are your general comments?

There is an individual interview and a panel interview with 2 other med students and 3 faculty members. The tour (which took us to Grady and Emory campus) was really long but it was great to be able to see everything.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
