What are your general comments?

"I am lucky in that I live in Little Rock, just ten minutes from the medical school campus. However, I was two minutes late because I had forgot my I.D. in my wife's car. Turns out that I didn't even need it. Watched a film on the school and listened to a speaker discuss the curriculum. Interviews are scheduled for forty-five minutes. Was in their chatting for an hour and ten. Turns out that the student interviewing me had done research under the same undergrad professor that I had. She was expecting a littel girl and so we also talked about my daughter for a long time. " Report Response
