prospect of spending another 4 yrs in Durham...

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

how bored I would be - I'm a duke undergrad and as of recent have been spending more time on the med campus than undergrad campus

What are your general comments?

I have lots of friends in the med school who answered every ? I could possibly ever have so I was extra bored. I felt the session was not as informative/engaging as it could have been for the other interviewees. Duke is such a beautiful/hi-tech/cutting edge/new/bold place and I felt they couped up us interviewees for most of the day in the dank purple zone of Hospital south w/out really showing off the best duke med has to offer.
