What are your general comments?
Very very laidback. Q&A session when you get there with 2 M2s with an informal chat with an Admissions Dean. The interview group is small, about 6-7 students. You have 2 interviews in the morning with faculty followed by a lunch interview with an M2. Then a tour of the facilities. You're done by 2pm.

What impressed you positively?
Student body seems so tight knit and laidback. It's NOLA so I got the sense that it was ''work hard, play hard.''
What impressed you negatively?
Anatomy lab is sorta depressing. 6 tanks in a room, 6 rooms total. The school is split into 2 buildings at the moment, 1 being very new and nice and the other one older.
