What are your general comments?

"I've already been accepted to an MD (in the U.S.) school...I went in just wanting to make sure that I was making a right choice by going to that MD school, and now UNECOM is neck-in-neck with that other school. I got nothing but good vibes from the school, the students, the town (Biddeford/Saco), and the state of Maine. The interview itself was a very enjoyable conversation with a retired pathologist (DO) and a second year medical student. " Report Response
