What are your general comments?

"My interviews were with a student, the dean and a faculty member. The student interview lasted over an hour where we basically had a conversation about my life and the origins of and path I took to enter medicine. Its like one of those conversations you have with someone at a cafe that you just happen to strike conversation with. The Dean interview was about 15 minutes - its an informal meeting where she wants to find out about your interests of the school and how your day went. I'll just stay mum about my faculty interview because I dont think it was an ideal one - he asked me some questions, I answered, he jotted - you know what I mean? :) There was no stress interview and no ethical questions at all. All interviewers did not have access to any of my application except the faculty member who had my ps and thats was it." Report Response
