Einstein is in a nice part of Bronx, lecture halls are renovated. Einstein pay for 75% of airticket for 4th year who do rotation overseas. Nice and cheap student apt

What impressed you negatively?

My tour guide said some negative stuff about the school.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

That Einstein's not a "ghetto" place...it's not manhattan but it's a safe and fairly nice place

What are your general comments?

It wasn't a totally laid-back interview, because though she was nice, she really went deep into why medicine and why Einstein. I'm better at the why medicine question b/c this was my 5th interview and I had thought of what to say ahead of time. She did comment that my choice of working with elderly with mental retardation was rather unique. Most other applicants "read books to cancer kids", the common stuff.
