What impressed you negatively?

"No one could tell me a reason they went to the school except that it was in state. I asked my interviewer why he liked Detroit and he couldn't give me an answer. I was expecting them to sell the school to me, but they didn't try. They figured I was too good for the school or something. Hell, I would go there if it meant getting to go to med school at all! They shouldn't have had that attitude. I sure didn't. The interviewer was falling asleep and forgot some of my answers and had me repeat them!" Report Response

"I had an overall positive experience and I would go to the school if I didn't get in anywhere else. Most of the people there are from Michigan or have family there.
