What are your general comments?

"Dr. Haight was funny and made the whole day very informal and welcoming. Interview was alittle stressful knowing that it was a panel asking questions not individually but to a group of your fellow peers. However, each question was personalized to your file and after it started, the stress lifted (wasn't as bad as I thought). The interview consisted of 1 PhD, 2 DO's, and a student. Questions were open-file so definatly know EVERYTHING in your file. But the questions weren't that bad, and you end up only answering about 4 questions throughout the hour because of the nature of the type of interview." Report Response
