What are your general comments?

Wright State is a great place! If you are really nervous, don't be. The interviewers are told to not be too hard on the students and just be conversational, and according to my experience, they do just that- have a conversation. Nothing is unexpected or tricky. They really want to get to know you as a person- would they want you as their doctor?
