What are your general comments?

"My experience was very positive. First we were greeted by med students. They were really helpful, answered a lot of questions, and they even gave us little bios about the people who were interviewing us. Then we had a short presentation, followed by interviews. Then we went on a tour of the school, the simulation center, and then to the hospital for lunch...ORDER THE MILKSHAKES--THEY'RE AWESOME. We had a short tour of the hospital and finished the day back at the school with closing remarks from one of the faculty. We had a small group interviewing, so it was a very meaningful experience."
