What are your general comments?

It was snowing in Boston, so my flight was delayed by a couple of hours. I got in around 8pm, which was a drag because I wanted to be able to walk around and explore the area a little more. Other than that, it was a great experience. Most people complain about the fact that you're in the same room for what could be close to three hours with seemingly nothing to do, however, It is up to you to make the most of your time. The entire time there are med students walking around. Forget about the other interviewees and try to talk to as many med students as possible, how else are you going to get a feel for the place?
