What are your general comments?

Its a pretty long day. Wear comfy shoes. I cannot stress this enough. They make you walk forever. We first toured the VA hospital after listening to a curriculem by Dr. Specter (which is very informative, by the way). After the tour we did our 30minute interviews. Mine was first with med student-a super nice dude , and than a faculty member- also super nice. We ate lunch (also really good) and chit chatted with everyone. It felt like social hour, but it was fun. Dr. Larkin than told us how the admission process worked. We took at tour of the school, and then the Army and navy gave us a talk on their military scholarships. These people are SUPER NICE and HONEST. They answer any question graciously!
