What impressed you positively?

The students were very enthusted about the school; the faculty was very sympathetic and warm; the new med school building looks awesome.

What impressed you negatively?

New England is horridly frigid during the winter: it takes time to adjust to it if you're from a warmer part of the country.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

What are your general comments?

It felt more like a conversation than an interview-- laid back, smoothly flowing. I'm not sure how you're supposed to know whether or not you had a good interview-- the questions were all straightforward and just flowed smoothly.
