What are your general comments?

We met with the dean of admissions in the morning. He was really nice and I had an interview with him later in the afternoon. The med students walked by and wished everyone good luck. I liked both of my interviews and really want to go to this school. Oh yes-- bring your interview suit with you on the plane- the airport misplaced my luggage and I had to run around a new city trying to find clothes.
