Good thread, and I like your questions. Here are a few that I'm planning to ask:

8. What do you like most about the school?
9. How competitive/cutthroat are the other students? Or does everyone help each other out?
10. In the clinic, are there enough patients? chairs? attendings?
11. Do most students own a car or take public transit?
