What are your general comments?

"The interview was short, sweet, and to the point. This is what all med school interviews should be like. At this point in the process the med schools know almost everything about us, grades, MCAT, extracurriculars, experiences, etc. The only thing they don't know is our personalities, which can be discovered with a simple conversation. Grilling students with tough questions is pointless. Way to go Saint Louis on doing it right!" Report Response
