How did you prepare for the interview?

SDN, read schools website and my secondary materials.

New focus on reseach. The facilities were nice and the students were friendly.

The students seemed a little too laid back. I know this is Cali, but its also medical school. Do you really need to wear workout clothes to class?

It was located in a stink hole.

What are your general comments?

The whole experience was excruciatingly boring. I wish we could have done the interview in the morning and leave so that I could get back to work. Everything that I read about the school was rehashed during the introduction part of the interview day.
