Faculty is really wonderful and will bend over backwards to make sure you get the best education possible - even during COVID. Format of grading promotes class collaboration - classmates are mostly non competitive.
-

Faculty is amazing.
-
High quality lectures, high quality instructors

The professors are truly amazing. They care for their students and it shows in their devotion to the curriculum. The quality of the education is top notch. The flipped classroom with lectures that are recorded gives you the ability to watch videos as many times as you would like and is an amazing resource even after classes are over for board prep.

Classes are still mostly graded (A,B,C) and attendance is essentially mandatory (although remote during COVID). This has its own pros and cons, but you might feel like you're doing some things just to collect points and not to learn.

The town was pretty quiet/not fancy.
-
Administration is not the nicest..
-
I wish we had a nicer campus
-
The administration can be difficult. It is sometimes hard to make changes in certain aspects of the school such as clicker grading and the mandatory attendance policy. While we are not in class for many hours a day, it would be nice to be able to change the clicker policy, which has not yet happened. The administration can seem to be stuck in their ways, but I think that is possible with any school.

This is a solid program, the instructors are outstanding. I feel like I am getting a high quality education here.

The camaraderie between students is powerful. There is never a feeling of extreme competition between students as the grading is designed in a particular way to foster team learning. Notes are shared as are study practices between students of the same year as well as the years ahead. Students provide reviews for the year below which is extremely helpful.
Success!
