What impressed you positively?

HOUSING

What impressed you negatively?

I don't know how to describe it: this indeterminate happiness of the students. They all say it's great and more laid back than anywhere else yet they all do well on the boards and go off to good places. Also, the location isn't the most happening part of the city, although you're right next to the park.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

Eat a good breakfast, you won't eat until 12:30 and we had to get there at 8:15

What are your general comments?

2 interviewers, first seemed with an ob/gyn seemed to go better than the second with a urologist. Expect to hear the *exact* same questions both times so try to act spontaneous when you hear yourself echoing your same comments just a few minutes earlier.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
