"The 28x flyer bus goes from the airport to the medical school/nearby hotels. It's cheap ($2.25, bring exact change), but it takes a LONG time. It takes an hour or so for it to go in either direction. Remember to factor that into your travel schedule." Report Response
"The morning started off with a tour. This was a very extensive tour. Be prepared for about an hour and half to two hours of walking. We had a short presentation and then went off to lunch. After lunch, we had our three interviews. My first was a M2, and it lasted about 45-50 minutes. My second was a faculty member and also lasted about 45-50 minutes. The last was a member of the admissions staff and this lasted about 10-15 minutes. All the interviews were very low-key and conversational. It seemed liked they simply wanted to get to know you."
