What are your general comments?

"I was one of the (unlucky or lucky, depending how you look at it) few that received only one interview on my day. The majority of the interview was spent discussing healthcare and ethical issues, but the calming manner of my interviewer put me completely at ease, and probably allowed me to answer each question to the best of my abilities. The environment of AMC is rather gloomy and depressing during the colder months, but the cheerfulness of the administration and students really help to enhance the college." Report Response
