What are your general comments?
I underestimated how much I would like the school and the area. Milwaukee was a fun place to explore and the people both at MCW and around the city were all friendly and welcoming. Students seem really happy at MCW. The fact that it is a stand-alone med school is appealing as well - you get the academic environment without the nuisance and distraction of an undergraduate population competing for the same resources.
