What are your general comments?
This was my first interview, and it was a great first interview to have. The faculty was very nice, and the students came and ate lunch with us, even though they had exams that day. I think that once FSU COM has been around for a few years, it will move to the forefront of medical schools, because of its adaptability. The interviews were very conversational. I didn't feel pressured at all to answer with the "correct" answer on anything I was asked.
