What impressed you positively?

What impressed you negatively?

The traditional curriculum. The city of Philly is not my favorite.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

I stayed w/a student host and it was great! I even got to go to a Phillies game. It's a great way to meet the students and get to know the school better.

What are your general comments?

The interview is in the afternoon so in the morning you sit through a bunch of presentations and eat lunch. Then you have a student interview which is really easy and a tour of the campus. My itnerview was with an attending and took place in a doctor's office. He hadn't even reviewed my file but it was really easy.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
