Fantastic Children's Hospital, friendly students, 98% of students pass the boards (WOW!!!)

It's in Norfolk, VA. Also, it's relatively new so it does not have much of an established reputation.

The school and students are extremely involved in community activities.

What are your general comments?

The first 2/3s of the interview were devoted to the "difficult" questions. Once that was over with, the interviewers really wanted to just chat about things I like to do and why I've chosen medicine.
