What was the most difficult question?
Nothing really. The interview was very conversational and low-stress.
What impressed you positively?
Love new orleans. The new patient simulator is pretty cool. The students are laid back and friendly. The MD/MPH program is excellent, very streamlined and you get to specialize in different areas of public health. Not many schools allow you to do that.

Very expensive. New Orleans isn't too big on recycling.

All the interviews are closed file, unless you have Dr. Beckman. She's the only one that has access to your entire application. I had her, but it went really well and she's very nice.
