How did you prepare for the interview?

Review of application, research of school and it's programs and research

What impressed you positively?

Easy to talk to faculty, nice facilities, students that we met were fun and easy-going

What impressed you negatively?

Location: it's close to a bad side of town from what I hear, and it's a bit far from downtown.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

Even though the students work hard, they are also more "active" and fun than a lot of students from MD programs, with lots of social events and intramural sports. Freaking crazy drivers, I felt like I was going to die on my shuttle trip from the airport to my hotel, the guy was going 80 on the shoulder!!!

What are your general comments?

Overall, one of the least stressful interviews I've had, with very easy and friendly faculty. The tour showed most of campus, including clinical and academic facilities, but not student housing. Free lunch =D
