What impressed you positively?
The facilities are awesome; everything nice and new and they're planning on building six more structures before the 2008 entering class. The student housing also seemed decent. The faculty and staff seem like a tight-nit family and the students were very layed back and friendly. Also the school's performance on tests is one of the highest nation wide.
What impressed you negatively?
nothing
What are your general comments?
It was a little intimidating being in front of three people (my last interview was conducted by only one person), they were a professor, a third year, and bioethics master. But they were really friendly and at the end, when i asked my questions we just chatted about the school and the environment. Most of the questions stemmed from my resume and clinical experiences. I was a bioethics minor so i got a lot of questions on stem cells, marfan syndrome, religion, etc.
