What are your general comments?

The interview was held with a professor, DO and admissions staff. It was only 30 min. long and was very generic. I felt like I spent a lot of money and time traveling to West Virginia and that the school had little interest in really getting to know who I was. The people where very nice however, I was just very surprised at the lack of interest in my application. The town is nice though, rural but with cute shops, coffee and bakery shops, gallery's etc...The greenbrier river trail is gorgeous. I was there in October so it was just beautiful.
