What are your general comments?

"They tour you for one of the medical facilities before the interview. Our group visited Shriner's hospital, which impressed me a lot (they treat children patients there). Plus before the actual interview, you get to talk to med students and Mr.Larkin (very nice guy) and all of these should help you relax before the actual interview.
