an older and likable doctor, did ask me a few off the wall questions, but asked me a few questions i considered off limits like what schools have you been accepted to, which rejected from...also asked me questions then told me the best answers he had ever gotten. gee thanks. at the end he told me the school i had gotten into was a good option...I thought that was not a great sign.

lots of patient contact at Einstein, good, real cheap student housing, AE is very close to Manhattan but not actually in it, so dont have to deal with the negatives of the big city, diversity of patient contact
What impressed you negatively?
kosher food law...what? closed on the sabbath? may be a little akward going here if ur not jewish, especially if you have choices at other "normal" schools. also didnt like that the interviewer had to read my file in front of me before starting...he read out loud any Bs i got and those classes.
What did you wish you had known ahead of time?
housing is cheap, very close. also, i wish i had known i would become a freezing icicle while making the 10 minute walk to the Jacobi Hospital from admissions. had brought warm clothes to cover suit, but had changed out of them upon arriving. wind, cold.
