The

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

That we won't receive news for eight weeks (which is after the march 15th AMCAS deadline). Awkward.

What are your general comments?

I thought this interview would be a lot more tense and intimidating than the other schools that I interviewed at because it is much more highly ranked, but it wasn't too bad. My faculty interviewer was really interesting and fun to talk to, my student interviewer a little less so. I'm still waiting for acceptance/rejection news though- so who knows.
