What are your general comments?

"After reading over two other feedbacks, I'm guessing three of us had the same interviewer. It was intimidating at first because he wouldn't ask any questions. Then, he asked about my MCAT, and said the same thing: I had a stong app, he'd put in a good word, and he'd figure I'd be an accept or on the wait list. Because Vandy is trying to get ranked higher, they pretty much won't accept anyone with an MCAT below their average. " Report Response
