What are your general comments?

"The process at UofL seems to be designed to relax the interviewee. Six applicants are brought in for an interview day. After a brief introduction by the Director of Admissions, a video is shown. After the video, students are taken for one-on-one interviews with both clinical and academic members of the faculty. Questions vary from interviewer to interviewer, but they all have a few in common. I like how the interviews are done immediately, so that applicants don't build up stress all day. Remember that although the process is relaxed, the school is a close community, and you are being watched." Report Response
