What are your general comments?

"Three interviews: One administrative, one faculty, one student. All were laid back and the time seemed to fly by. I had a bit of down-time between interviews but I think that was a neccessary evil based on the students' schedules. Only my administrative interview was fully open-file; my faculty member had my GPA/MCAT, my personal statement, and my AMCAS activities (but not my transcript); my student interviewer had only my personal statement and AMCAS activities -- no GPA/MCAT. ALl three interviewers had obviously read my file and made some notes in it, which impressed and mildly intimidated me, but overall all three were very relaxed." Report Response
