How did you prepare for the interview?

Re-read my AMCAS application.

What impressed you positively?

Computer facilities looked nice.

What impressed you negatively?

Bitter students too eager to share gripe stories -- scratch the surface and the bile gushes forth on classes, students who make up blood pressure numbers in charts b/c they forget how to read the settings, etc.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

Every time the school gets in trouble for its ancient curriculum, it just ADDS something -- never takes outdated stuff out. Enough students told me about this to make me nervous.

What are your general comments?

Thanks for the free lunch ... would go there ahead of Guatemala.
