What are your general comments?

"I arrived early and sat in on a first year lecture. I had a 1.5 hour long interview where the interviewer told me a good deal about the school. Then I joined two other interviewees and 4 medical students who took us on a tour of the library, gym, first-year lecture hall, and one of their on-campus apartments before taking us to lunch at the cafeteria. I walked around a bit on my own to get a feel for the area, and then went home." Report Response
