read over AMCAS and secondary application, school admissions packet, studentdoctor.com for interview question types.

What impressed you positively?

friendliness of everyone there, people look genuinely happy, stress is minimal, good looking women, remarkable exercise facilities, everything you need in one building, spacious atrium for socializing/reading.

What impressed you negatively?

more of a campus feel would have been nice. The medical complex is not part of loyola undergrad. and somewhat off on its own.

What are your general comments?

great day. The interview experience was very well put together. Only two other people were interviewing this day so the tour, lunch etc. weren't stressful and there was plenty of time for questions. During a gap between interviews I was led into a 2nd year class where several 2Ms introduced themselves almost right away. Very friendly crowd and inviting atmosphere. The day was structured around 2 interviews.. i was told that if both interviewers agreed, roughly, on your performance score (1-10) then you can go home afterwards.. otherwise a 3rd interview is required. Interviews were very much conversational though with almost no stress.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
