What are your general comments?

"I thoroughly enjoyed my visit! They mad us feel very welcome. I worried that I was interviewing for a waitlist spot, but they spoke as if we had as good a chance as anyone else who interviewed. They broke the numbers down as far as how many apply, interview, and get in. I felt honored just to get an interview! I would go to this school, and be proud to say that I was a Meharry graduate. The students were intelligent, yet that typical competitive vibe that you encounter at the professional level was not there. Everyone was friendly, helpful, and talkative. Because it was the week after their Easter break, and people had finals that day, we only met with one med student and on former student who is currently a faculty member there. Other people said that the lunch with the students is an undercover interview, but because there was only one student, I don't know if she'll have a say or not. " Report Response
