What are your general comments?

I was a bit reluctant about the city, however upon my arrival, I found everyone to be very kind and helpful, even the Gen. Lewis Inn Limo. driver knew alot about the school, their mission and their rankings in the states. He also gave me a few tips, and made me feel at home. The staff, as well as students that took us on the campus tour were very helpful in answering questions and reassuring us. They also seemed confident and proud of their remarkable facilities and rankings in primary care. The interview was pretty laid back, although I did freak out, 'cos I was the last to interview that day, and I got to interview for like 40mins. However, everything must have gone o.k, as I got accepted.
