What are your general comments?

If you are a quiet personality, don't even bother applying to this school. PBL interview is like a Jeopardy show without the buzzer. You know the stuff, but other students already say it first leaving you desperate to find other things to say next. So if you have PBL interview coming up for you, practice saying things as fast and loud as they come to mind. Students in the program don't seem to utilize PBL to its intended purpose. Yet the interview itself is very well-coordinated. Great facility, I gotta admit. The students are friendly too, allowing you to ask pretty much anything during lunch.
