"Reviewed old stuff that I had from previous interviews." Report Response
"The staff was enthusiastic and very attentive to your needs, seeing that you'll potentially be part of their first class. I am positive that down the line, this'll be one of those schools that people will desperately want to get in to. It has plenty of promise and quite a bit of media attention (being the first med school to open in NYC in 30 years, and at Harlem at that). Most importantly, the school seemed very, very sincere in wanting to make a difference and serve the neglected areas of NYC. It really felt like you'll be part of something great if accepted." Report Response
"The building wasn't done. I was under the impression that it was going to be a NEW building but in fact, they were only renovating this older one. And although Bill Clinton's office is only a block away, Harlem still has that unfortunate stigma of being tense and slum-like. If you've lived most of your life in smaller cities and such, it might freak you out." Report Response
"Nothing really, though I wish I knew EXACTLY where the building was because it was an absolute pain for me to walk around in high heels." Report Response
"Apart from the interview, I spent a couple of days or so in NYC to visit friends and to sight-see. While my overall experience was quite positive, I'd be lying if I didn't mention my disappointment in the fact that the building wasn't done. I wanted to see the facilities myself instead of being told repeatedly that it'll be state-of-the-art." Report Response
