Looked over AMCAS app, Emory website, my secondary app, this website.

In the group interview, I had to pretend to be George Bush and convince the admissions officer (portrayed by another group member) to pick me for med school over Bill Clinton (portrayed by the 3rd group member).

What impressed you positively?

The facilities are great, students are super friendly, and the admissions staff is really nice.

The tour was pretty long. It seemed like they were just trying to have us kill time while the other half of the students were interviewing. Traffic in Atlanta is really bad.
