What are your general comments?

"Davis was great! We saw a lot of the campus in Sacramento. the SOM is moving there to a new fab building with great facilities. They also have this amazing simulation laboratory with dummies. My interview was with the Dean of Admissions and it took place in the cafeteria. It was relaxed and conversational. He hadn't read my file yet, which meant that he really wanted to get to know me first. My student interview was very similar, but the questions were more directed. He had specific interview-like questions to ask me. I was also able to sit in on a physiology class and speak with some students. They were very happy at Davis and so enthusiastic. Overall, it was a great day." Report Response
