"The interview was very laid back. I met with an admin, 2 med students, and a MD. All of the interviews were one on one. One of the med students was an M2 the other an M4. The interview with the med students was extremely, extremely laid back. All of the questions they asked me were nonacademic. The MD and Admin were also very pleasant. The school was great and the interview was low stress." Report Response
