What are your general comments?
Great experience overall!! I left feeling really positive about the school and my decision to practice medicine. My first interviewer was more serious and asked me a lot of questions about my motives to practice medicine. My second interviewer was so kind and basically reviewed my accomplishments and applauded me for them. I have an unusual family background and he asked me a number of questions about that.

I couldn't believe how extremely nice and helpful everyone was. Throughout the day med students who saw me would ask how everything was going and if I had any questions. Everyone seemed very happy to be there. There were excellent facilities and great opportunities for research and clinical experience.

the weather was really bad and Hershey seemed like it was kind of the sticks- quaint or cozy town guess.
What did you wish you had known ahead of time?
The campus is expanding its facilities tremendously. The children's hospital is also just one floor of the hospital- it's not a separate building.
