What impressed you positively?

The school is impressive. Gorgeous buildings, decent weather. The students I talked with were very nice, although they were not especially enthusiastic. I also really loved the Yale System. The anatomy lab is pretty awesome too.

What impressed you negatively?

The day was really haphazard. DIdnt get a financial aid talk. Got a lame tour, but students who werent very enthusiastic. My first interview, i got there, and his secretary said the admissions office didnt inform him about the interview, so i had to go back to office. I expected a little more from them. `

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

I had done my research, so I was pretty prepared

What are your general comments?

Overall, the day was OK. It didnt make me love it any more or less. Its still Yale, an awesome school with a great med program. I had a student interview and a faculty. Both didnt really ask hard questions, mostly about my experiences and why I wanted to go to Yale. The food isnt good, and the tour was really short.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
