What are your general comments?

I was very impressed with the admissions organization and friendly assistance during the interview day. My actual interview was conducted with two Osteopathic physicians and one PHD. There was a little good cop/bad cop routine to test my resolve, but it was nothing I couldn't handle. I felt that the interviewers really enjoyed my original and honest answers to all of the personal questions that I was asked. I did receive an offer to attend NOVA and I will strongly consider attending next fall.
