What are your general comments?

"It was more of a conversation. My first interview was with a 2nd year student and we chatted about some of my experiences and about my life outside of the classroom. It was real enjoyable. My second interview was with a retired professor of medicine from the school. He really asked a lot of questions about my background and upbringing. He was interested in what other members of my family have done and all the places I've lived. He did most of the talking and went into a long explanation of the foundation of the school and what it is all about. It was low-stress and rather informative. I liked everyone I met. Everyone was really kind and there was no sense of arrogance or superiority in anyone I talked to." Report Response
