What are your general comments?

"I wish Case would not have been my first interview. I tried not to fall in love, but that was hard to do. I was very nervous for the interviews and felt I could have done better if I would have had a previous one under my belt. Case seems like it will give its students unparalleled access to just about any specialty they are interested in. I'm hoping that I'll be back for 2nd look weekend, it sounds fun. " Report Response
