"all the people in admissions are really friendly and outgoing. my itnerviewer was not my scheduled interviewer but she was just as nice. we spent a while talking and she went into detail about what it was like to be a female physician in a very sub-specialty. it was a good day. it was hard to tell if she liked me or not because i could not read her expressions very well. I guess that's a good quality to have as an interviewer..." Report Response
