What are your general comments?

Interview experience was really great. Tour began at 10:00am and finished at 12:45pm. Alot of effort was put into getting students to see the great attributes of EVMS that are not known. While touring EVMS students tried to help prepare us for the interview (They told us the types of questions to expect). The interview itself went well. Most of the questions were similar to the ones on sdn. The interviewers focused on getting to know me and to see how motivated I was about being a physician. Overall, a good representation of what an interview should be like.
