What are your general comments?

"Well, I enjoyed it and the hospitals are fantastic. But I was surprised at the extent to which they complimented and praised me. I was told things like "I think you'll definitely get in," and "your recommendations are the strongest I've seen." I've been rejected at plenty of schools and this type of language seemed highly inappropriate, especially since it's a committee decision. Don't insult my intelligence..." Report Response
