That traffic can easily make a 10 min. Mapquest commute into 1 hour. Make sure you leave extra early to make it in time, especially in the morning.

What are your general comments?

The first one was slightly stressful since I had to justify the decisions I made to take/not take certain classes (med. ethics) and discuss my point of view on certain ethics questions. The second one was not stressful at all. She helped me answer any questions I had about the school, and was openly supportive of my application.
