What are your general comments?

My best interview experience by far. It was quite an eventful day. I really got a good feel for what the school was like. It seems like they really put a lot of money into the event which is nice. They give you an intinery for day ahead of time so you'll know what to expect. The tour was quite long 2 hours. They showed you the school as well as the medical center that's connected. Overall, I would love to go to school there.
