What are your general comments?

I had a monotone physician, who ended up being really awesome, and an awful student. There was no connection between us and he totally didn't like me. I was called for a third interview due to difference of opinions between the two interviewers, and my third guy was great! But, honestly, this is the first school (even with a bad interview) that I have walked out of feeling completely inadequate! Not cool.... thank you for pointing out everything I had done wrong and not thinking my explanations were sufficient enough.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?

Let people know that in order to do the host program they HAVE to make it to the social the night be
