What are your general comments?

"Interviewer's were very laid back and friendly. They seemed interested in getting to know you far beyond your grades/MCAT numbers. In fact, grades/MCAT were barely even mentioned at all 3 of my interviews. I had 3 in total: 1 closed file with a 4th year student, and 2 open file with faculty members (1 Ob-Gyn and 1 Emergency Medicine). Waiting outside the office for your name to be called did get kind of stressful but once your 1st interview starts you'll wonder why you were even stressed out to begin with. Great experience which exceeded my expectations on every level." Report Response
