Positively 🙂
What was the stress level of the interview?
2 out of 10
0 = Low Stress, 10 = High Stress
What are your general comments?
I really appreciated the fact that the interview environment was very friendly. At the California Osteopathic Medical Schools, they're very patronizing in their tone, and I really don't think there's any need for that type of an interview. So, UNE was right up my alley. There's no dress code like Erie or Nova, and the students seem to be very synergistic in their studies - always helping each other out. There aren't any class rankings - 70% means pass and 90% means high pass.
Overall, UNE, KCOM, and PCOM are the top three choices for me now.
💬 Interview Process
What is one of the specific questions they asked you?
A couple of questions about college activities.

I didn't - one of the medical students there told me about this site.
What impressed you positively?
1. The environment was cozy.
2. Everyone was friendly.
3. They weren't trying to grill you - just a friendly exchange of information between the interviewee and interviewers.
4. I like the fact that there are about 1,000 undergrads.
What impressed you negatively?
Minor point - the campus isn't very large.
What did you wish you had known ahead of time?
There's a train from Boston to Biddeford for $17.
