price, not sure how I feel about the ''exam blocks''

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

The interviewers had a list of like 7-8 questions from the admissions office, and asked all of them - so there was a lot of repitition b/w my two interviews, and they therefore, seemed structured.

What are your general comments?

Presentation, tour that was really great - got to see standardized patient rooms, etc, financial aid presentation, lunch w/ M1s and M2s, interviews (one with a med student, one with a physician). Minimal stress.
