What are your general comments?

"This was my second time at ECU. Last year, I didn't accept me because they didn't feel that I'd stay in North Carolina just because I went to undergraduate somewhere else. So this time, I was hoping that they wouldn't pick on me abt where I spent my undergraduate years that much. I hope that they realize how much I am dedicated to stay in the state of NC. My interviewers were a professor and a 3rd year medical student. I wish that I had gotten a chance to meet Dr. James Peden at the end of my visit but he was busy. " Report Response
