What are some of the problems involved with universal healthcare in the United States?

What was the most difficult question?

"Where do you see the future of medicine in 10 years, both for yourself and for the profession?" This question was very broad, but after I gave some answers, he repeated the question as if I wasn't getting at what he wanted me to say. It was rather confusing.

What impressed you positively?

The facilities were very new, and it was interesting that they put so much emphasis on their professional patient program.

What impressed you negatively?

Both of the faculty members that gave the presentation, and also the medical students that gave the tutor talked about how there was still time in medical school to party there. There is a place and time for everything, and interview day is not the day to talk about partying at your school.

What are your general comments?

The tour and interview all went rather normally. The people seemed friendly, and they have relatively new facilities for the medical students. The financial aid presentation however was very brief, and I couldn't make out what the woman was saying.
