Interview Experiences
Friendly
fantastic. everyone really friendly and down to earth and make an effort to get to know you.
A lot like Hopkins (selection chair is son of previous PD at Hopkins). 5-6 10 minute interviews. One or two seemed a little antagonistic. Great dinner. Smart residents.
6 15-min interviews with 4 faculty and 2 residents, pretty relaxed
Strong program, great location!
identical to hopkins, very chill, dinner was best anywhere (zagat 28!!!)
6 short interviews.
