The medical students seemed to love their school, they were a close knit group and I could tell they were happy.

They don't stream their lectures, so you would have to attend lecture to get access to certain material.
What did you wish you had known ahead of time?
Believe in yourself! If you are interviewing here its because you are the shit.
What are your general comments?
The MMI questions were not that stressful and were actually kind of interesting. The group activity wasn't too bad as well. The one-on-one was more nervewracking for me than the MMIs. Try to relax, even if the person interviewing you looks intimidating and not friendly.
