What are your general comments?
I was impressed with the school as was evident in what positively impressed me. The day began with a talk from the VP, then a question and answer panel by three students, then a tour, lunch, and the interview. It was relaxed day and I appreciated all of the time to ask questions. The students everywhere were friendly and welcoming. It was a great day and I was treated wonderfully. I was also impressed that my interviewer prepared for the interview!!! He has info about medical missions and research scholarships becasue those two things are obvious interests of mine when you read my personal statement. That really impressed me. Definitely check KCUMB out!
