What impressed you negatively?

Olin Hall. Very dorm-like and not where i'd want to live.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

The professors aren't paid to teach, they all volunteer b/c they want to do it.

What are your general comments?

Overall great. Got there the night before and stayed in olin hall. Went down for pizza and chilled with whatever med students showed up. Got to talk with them. In the morning had breakfast, orientation/fincial aid, then everyone has different schedules. I had 2 interviews and seemed to be the only one where they were both open file. They were really laid back, just talking about everything and anything with very few questions. After that lunch with med students and tour with the same students.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
