What are your general comments?

I was really nervous since it was my very first interview so I wish I could have done better and elaborate more in the interviews. However the admission staff and students are SUPER friendly. I made a few minor mistakes here and there during the interview...such has mentioning USMLE as the boards instead of COMLEX, but I did correct myself. Anyhow, I was accepted!
