The cost and the student I spoke with said that the research opportunities weren't that great.

There is a lot of down time waiting for interviews so pray that you won't be stuck in the room with annoying people who love to talk about how great they are and how many interviews they have been on.

What are your general comments?

The faculty interviewer was super nice and it was a really good conversation. It wasn't stressful at all and felt like a regular conversation. The student interviewer was even nicer and was great. It was like talking to a friend. He also let me follow him down to the cadavers and meet his friends.
