What are your general comments?

"It seems to be a long day. As stated in other feedback on temple, there is a lot of down time for the other interviewees to finish. It kinda sucks because they give you lunch but everyone is nervous to eat because they can call you in for the interview at any time! The tour of the health science campus is more or less unnecessary...you won't be there until sometime 3rd year anyway. Plus north philly is a hole. Interview itself good but the rest of the day I was not impressed with. " Report Response
