What are your general comments?

All in all, the interview went well. The medical students were really helpful. They went out of their way to accomodate me. They all seemed like one big happy family. (Very Brady Bunch like) There is a great emphasis on team work and community instead of cut throat competition. Lots of new technology and new smelling classrooms kind of like a new car. Also, they give scholarship for tuition and housing. Bling Bling. $$$ This is a plus. If you are accepted, you receive a call within a few days. Although, this school does have a stigma because it is "new" and has not even undergone the match process, I think that in a few years it will be at an equal level with the other three florida med schools.
