Yeah I was super pissed and totally uncomfortable. My personal statement was obviously personal and while I'm very comfortable sharing it with an adcom it should have been at my discretion to share it with potential future peers. I thought this was very unprofessional of the school. Ugh not to mention the second year was completely unimpressive and said really idiotic and inappropriate things in our interview.
Sorry, but after working clinically for a few years I really don't see the point of having a student who's younger than me with less clinical experience sit there and pick apart my application like he/she is all-knowing, not to mention may possibly be a classmate of mine. Maybe 4th years would be fine but first and second have no business being involved in this process.
You are going to have superiors who are younger than you and with less clinical experience evaluate you when you become a medical student. I hope you are ok with that.
