What are your general comments?
You start out with generic telling about the school, then they have a panel of MS4's answer questions, then you have lunch with students. Afterwards, there is a tour given by an MS4 of the school and hospital. Then comes the search for interviewers. The campus, although small, makes it difficult to find your interviews, which could be just about anywhere. I had my interviews from two people who had a list of questions to ask and basically asked these questions and a few personal ones.
