What impressed you negatively?

"The interviewer just asked me questions. We never really had a repoire going. He was very nice, but he didn't seem all that interested in what I said.

What are your general comments?

"I arrived at the hospital to find out that the tour (which was first) was at the medical school across the street. The tour guide (a 3rd year) showed up late to take us, but was very apologetic and made sure we saw everything we wanted to see. We ate lunch with 3rd and 4th year students. They were helpful in answering questions. It was all very laid back. Then finally the interview. " Report Response
