"I really enjoyed myself in Pittsburgh. From the moment I arrived until the moment I left I felt welcome and comfortable. I stayed at the Shadyside Inn which is increadibly cheap and really, really nice. It's also close to the "chic" area of town. The interiew was really low key. An extremely friendly woman made the introductions. We then went on a very short tour consisting of the student lounge, the anatomy lab, PBL rooms, and a class room. I'm glad they spared us the tour of the hospital...you've seen one you've seen them all. Then we listened to a woman talk about the curriculum which was informative. Lunch was with a third year med student and that was cool. He talked to us about time management because he has a wife and child. Then, on to the student interviews. It lasted an hour but he was so easy to talk to we could have easily talked for longer. He had a list of questions that he basically gave to me and asked if there was anything he had forgotten. I thought that was kind of funny. Then on to a short interview with the Director of Admissions. She was so nice and we just chit chatted. The factulty interview was not as easy but followed the same conversational pattern. Most of the questions followed the conversation aside from the few that were directly from the paper, which looked a lot like the one the student had. And then the day was over. " Report Response
