What are your general comments?

Check in at 11:30, lunch at 12, students came and chatted with us and took as on a tour. INterview at 1:15. Didn't have to wait around long whcih was great. My interviewer was very nice and friendly, and we had a long (60+ mins)conversation. A couple of questions were challenging which made me a bit nervous, but he was very encouraging, and shared his insight about the medical profession.
