What are your general comments?

It was absolutely wonderful! I had no idea of the things that Tufts School of Medicine offers to its students. The interviews were more like conversations rather than the typical interrogation. My stress level dramatically decreased as I spoke to my interviewers. Plus, my interest in attending Tufts has significantly increased. The day I experienced cannot be effectively described to others; rather, i recommend that to those who have received interviews from Tufts, TAKE ADVANTAGE and you will be amazed!
