What are your general comments?

The overall day was very nice. The students are extremely friendly and willing to answer any questions. You get to tour one of the two main hospitals depending on the day you're there. You also get to experience the standardized patient program first hand, which is one of the shining points of the school. The interviewers were very nice and laidback. They did not want to add any pressure. The interviews are all in the afternoon after lunch (which is very good).
