What are your general comments?

My interviewer was the chair of the admissions committee. It was a very low-stress interview, and my interviewer seemed truly interested in what I had to say. The admissions lady that gave an introductory speech was friendly, and the 2nd and 4th year students we met had a lot of good things to say about the facility and the curriculum, and their clinical experiences.
