how bad does one need a car lol?

How much is the group interview weighted? I didn't contribute as much as the others and feel so bad that I didn't. I felt everything else went well though.

I like it. I have always preferred non-city living, so I like the area. There definitely is a feeling of a community bubble here. There are some interactions with Vermont med and Vermont law, but otherwise it's mostly just us. There are always events happening: farmer's markets, seasonal events, weekly community things, but it definitely doesn't feel as connected as a city.

Classes are good. We just started anatomy lab and the support we've gotten has been excellent. A huge emphasis on "there's no right way to experience/process this" and it has helped us all feel better.

Uhhhh, I know maybe 5ish people in our class of 96 who are making it work without a car. They need to get rides from people if they want to go shopping. Realistically, you need a car. You spend your first 2 years in Hanover on the medical school campus primarily, but you are still going to be going about. I am frequently in Hanover, West Leb, and Leb all in the same day. It is not practical to get around without a car.

No idea. I just remember hearing the advice of "don't talk the most but talk slightly more than average". I'd say the group interview is just a glimpse into your dynamic. If you're argumentative, talk over others, disagree in a disrespectful manner, etc. If you do not contribute a lot in terms of quantity, but what you did contribute was good, I'd think you'd be fine.
