What are your general comments?
I really enjoyed the experience. David Martin was very nice and super easy-going. In fact, he told me he played for the SD Chargers in the late 80s for a very short period of time! Dr. Newman, was my interviewer and was great. He's a big teddy bear type of guy. A bit intimidating at first, but once the interview started I knew it would be really relaxed. He probably talked more about himself than I did about myself! But in the end, Temple is my first choice.

Did you see that movie, Borat? (I told them I was a movie-lover in my spare time)

Reviewed my transcript, personal essay, and LORs. Also, I feel like the tour of the school/clinic/facilities really prepared me for the interview as well.
What was the most difficult question?
Besides your Bio major classes and your Soc minor classes, what was your favorite class? It was hard to answer because I loved all my Soc and Bio classes.
What impressed you positively?
I loved all the facilities the school has. The sim labs, the clinic, anatomy lab, and honors society lab, etc., etc. Also the students we had lunch with were incredibly nice and gave tons of helpful advice.
What impressed you negatively?
The only negative thing was the fact that the building was 30+ years old, but in the end aesthetics dont really matter that much to me. Pros outweigh the cons.
