What are your general comments?

My interviewers were attentive and ready to have a discussion. They didn't appear to be reading my file while I was in there. It seemed like they were just trying to see if I was a normal person. One of my interviewers was a MD who came to KCUMB because she really enjoyed all aspects of the school - she is also looking into end-of-life care, and how to teach students about it. Total plus.

How friendly everyone was. All of the student ambassadors were really excited about osteopathic medicine. Century Towers located across the street is also a bonus. The other individuals being interviewed were also an extremely diverse and lively bunch.

The surrounding area isn't the greatest. But then again if you're living in Century Towers or not near the campus, it really shouldn't be that big of a problem.
