What impressed you positively?

What impressed you negatively?

interviews ran longer than expected. they give you a timeline of when you interview and i was only called 20 mins after my scheduled time. i was also the last person to be interviewed. not fun either.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

the little post it for incomplete applications only meant i needed a picture. i thought they didnt get my mcat scores or something! ugh, they should just send us an email in the future to relieve needless stress!
