What are your general comments?

The presentations in the morning were excellent. I really feel that this is the school for me. They have a strong focus on adressing the whole needs of a patient and doing community work/helping underserved populations. Also, GU provides early clinical experience to help get students ready for USMLE Step 2. The actual interview went so so...I felt like the interviewer and I were never really on the same page. They were very blunt and didnt let me answer most of my questions fully. At some points I even thought they were really interested in my answers.
