How did you prepare for the interview?

Studentdoctor.net, going over secondaries and AMCAS essays. Also, I was taking a class on current medical issues, and that helped with one essay.

What impressed you positively?

It may sound trite, but the happiness of the students was completely out of this world. Maybe they are hiding the sad ones, but everyone i saw was digging it. Also, the sandwiches were good!

What impressed you negatively?

Nothing really, the tours were a little a little haphazard, but that's ok because they were led by 4th year students, so i liked that I didn't feel i had to impress anyone during that time. Just be myself.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

The tour at the end was optional, and i could have left an hour early without it hurting.

What are your general comments?

VERY positive, totally changed my opinion of gainesville. Was ranked low on my list of schools, now its one of the top.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
