What are your general comments?

"There were presentations about the school and financial aid before the interviews that really helped me get an idea of what questions I should ask my interviewers about the curriculum. The lunch was great. We ate at the cafeteria, which isn't half bad, with three med students, who weren't on the committee. We were able to ask them any questions we had. Then we rushed back to begin our interviews consisting of three 20 min, interviews with three diff. faculty members, for one hour. The interviews were very informal and conversational. They had only read our personal statement. Overall I had a great experience. They are so up with the technology and it is a major teaching tool. Their anatomy lab is also very cutting edge."
