Current first year at AMC lurking here because I actually just really enjoy giving people advice.
Your impression is pretty much exactly how it is here. AMC never tries to fluff something up to be something it isn't, the school atmosphere speaks for itself.
In my short less than a month here I have already witnessed how much the staff cares for us as students time and time again. I have emailed professors and administrators at 10pm on Friday and Saturday nights with questions and they got back to me within a half an hour. That's just the type of place AMC is. I love my class, I love the staff, I love pretty much everything about being a student here.
If anyone wants advice on anything, feel free to PM me and I will do my best to answer promptly (although my first test is on Monday, so maybe not right away for now...).
Also, pro-tip: add the admissions email address to your contacts if you haven't already. My interview invitation here went to my spam mail and I almost missed my chance to go to this amazing school. Wouldn't want that to happen to anyone else!
Good luck and I hope to see some of you here next year!
