What are your general comments?

"I got to the school a few minutes early, checked in and chatted with some of the prospectives. We then had presenters talk about finances, curriculum and student life (~2 hrs). We then had lunch and had a tour of the campus. We saw the main things, OMM lab, dissection, gift shop/bookstore, etc. Afterwards, we were brought to the staging area which is right in front of the freshman lecture hall. I mamnaged to sneak in and sit on part of a lecture before my interview. Great experience. The interview itself started 20 minutes late but was relatively easy. I was told be the med students that this is probably the most laid back interview you will encounter. Despite was previous people have posted, I didn't think the area was that ghetto. The campus itself is relatively small and has the appearance of warehouses on the outside, but I don't think people wlll go to a school specifically on appearance." Report Response
