The students were absolutely ecstatic about the school. They could not stop complimenting the schools faculty, facilities, and area.

I wish I had taken some serious philosophy courses.

What are your general comments?

This was a straightforward process. We got there by 10am. Presentations from 10-12. Lunch at 12 with a few medical students. Interview at 1. Tour at 2. Another interview at 2:50. That was the day. My first interviewer gave me some of the most deeply philosophical questions ever. The second interview was much more straightforward.
