What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

The interview day is all about answering applicant questions. I would have come with more to ask about if I knew they'd want to answer questions at every point throuout the day.

What are your general comments?

The day was great, I happened to get to Columbus early, and a Med I student invited me to the 8:30 lecture. All the students were friendly, even those not on the admissions staff. The day started with a talk from the admissions dean, then a Med IV student, a Prof, and financial aid. There was a good lunch (lots of options) and Med I students to talk to. Then there was a tour and the interviews were at the end of the day. There was a long interview with a faculty, and a short one with a Med II student. Everything was laid-back and comfortable. I really enjoyed the day.
