What are your general comments?

"Some interviews were held in the morning before the lunch and tour sessions. Other interviews spanned the afternoon. My interview was in the afternoon. I was one of 8 applicants that rotated through the interviews, each with two faculty and one med student. All three interviewers were asking questions or followup questions that were based upon my personal statement etc. My interview was later in the afternoon so I spent the time reading the school catalog and talking to the other applicants. The interview was very laid back. " Report Response
