What are your general comments?

Fairly laid back, my interviewers gave me the heads up when they were going to throw me ethics questions or "why be a doctor" questions. Tour was nice, lunch is ALL YOU CAN EAT which is great, and the students you meet are a great resource. Dominique, the girl in the admissions office is a cutie, too.
