This was my best interview yet- I was interviewed by a cardiologist who was friendly, relaxed, and had actually read my file. He asked me pertinent questions and answered all of my questions in depth. THe atmosphere seems very supportive and the students seem really friendly and relaxed. Wonderful school.
