What are your general comments?

"Horrendous weather, but everything (the med school, the dorms, and the admissions office) is connected, so I wasn't outside much. The interview was really relaxed. I was only asked the three questions below, and my interviewer spoke (about assorted topics, including medical school and NYU) for the rest of the interview. I would have liked more of a chance to talk about my application. The students were all very friendly and seemed to like the school and their experience there. It was a short day, but I really didn't miss the usual financial aid presentation or speech from the dean." Report Response
