"It started at 8:30am. There were about 6 interviewees including myself. Anne Berg talked about the curriculum, answered any general questions we had. Then we had two 45 mins interviews back-to-back. Lunch with third year students. Tour of the medical and dental facilities with a second year student. And then a Financial Aid talk, which none of it I understood. Finished at 2pm.
