What are your general comments?

"The interviewer just looked over my AMCAS application and asked questions from my responses about classes, work experience, essays, etc. No "tough" questions about ethical questions or things like that. Very informal and relaxed. I wish they would have had more "pomp and circumstance" around the interview. Detroit is not an attractive city for most people (compared to Chicago or Philadelphia) and I think Wayne should have had a presentation about the opportunities that Detroit has to offer because they aren't very apparent. In other words they should have tried to sell their school more. " Report Response
