What impressed you positively?
Nice People.
What impressed you negatively?
Awful campus. It's a licensing body, not a school (curriculum review made that clear). A clean-cut all-American/Canadian lad/gal of the traditional stream of neurotic premeds (such as I) will not fit in there.
What did you wish you had known ahead of time?
NA
What are your general comments?
I felt good about my answers. I also liked that the questions dealt with several issues, so a qausi-complete character-assessment could be made. the Autobiographical sketch component was awful though.
