What are your general comments?

"Very good interview experience, but I'm not sure if I "connected" with my first interviewer. At the end, he asked if I had any questions, and I used the time to expand on why I would make a good physician. Only time will tell. Very conversational interviews. No questions on healthcare reform, stem cell research, etc. I absolutely love the UTH facilities, teaching method, and integration of sprituality into the curriculum. Everything is available."
