What are your general comments?

"all interviewees shadowed a 4th year as he/she worked on a patient. this was a great and informative. i had an opportunity to chat with one of the dentists who was helping students out and he seemed really, really caring, patient, and helpful. it would be great to be surrounded by faculty like him, and according to students, 90% of the faculty is fab. the interview was stressful in the sense it wasn't conversational. it was question then answer. new question then answer. new question then answer. not really my cup of tea, but i imagine some students prefer such a format."
