What is one of the specific questions they asked you?

So what can I tell you about our medical school?

What was the most interesting question?

As you know, the medical field has been changing in the last few years. Where do you see it going in the next 10 years? (how do you know?)

read the school's website, my essay, and looked at this website

What was the most difficult question?

Same as above

What impressed you positively?

The students were great and the Dean of Admissions was really nice, his speech at the beginning was great. The interviewers were both really nice and personable.

What impressed you negatively?

Houston is one of the most polluted cities in the country. The medical school itself wasn't that nice, they are about to tear up the whole ground floor from the flood that happened like 2 yrs ago that they are just now fixing.

The classes are all day long, with lecture in the morning and labs all afternoon.
