What impressed you positively?

"Dr. Silverman is hilarious. Since it was halloween, he wore a stripey witch's hat with fake orange hair coming out of it on and off throughout the day. Both of my interviewers were very friendly. Students seemed laid back and happy to be there. I love the Yale System: I think it's a great curriculum for me: very self-directed and respectful. Anatomy lab runs from Sept to Feb and corresponds with what you're learning in class, plus the individual labs are case based, so for example you learn about the lung while discussing a patient with a pneumothorax."

What are your general comments?

"A good day! Dr. Silverman was great to talk to and a lot of fun, and both my interviewers were very friendly. Grace and Veronica in the admissions office were great.
