What impressed you positively?

My interviewers had read over my file throughly and were very interested in what activities I was involved with. My last interviewer even gave me a tour around his lab in the hospital and walked me over to the admissions office in the other building, which was very nice of him.

What impressed you negatively?

Baltimore isn't my favorite city, but it's not as bad as I thought it would be.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

The turkey sandwich is really just bread with a huge chunks of turkey breast. No lettuce/tomato/anything. The other sandwiches seemed to have more stuff in them.

What are your general comments?

I had a great time at the interview. I didn't know that I would like the school so much. The students were friendly and seemed to give very honest answers about what they liked and didn't like about the school. The interviewers were really nice. Facilites were great and they seem to have a lot of money for more construction and renovations.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
