I read SDN, read their website and had a mock interview.
What impressed you positively?
Everything. The medical school is actually part of the main campus yet the hospitals are all within walking distance of the classes. Everyone was extremely friendly. I was early and I spoke with several medical students before their calss. They truly love the school.
What impressed you negatively?
Nothing. What you hear about Nashville isn't true. Yes, the downtown is small but many cities are like that. There's lots of different areas with bars and restaurants. Nashville has a lot of great restaurants and nightlife. Yet it is a manageable city, easy to navigate and in 20 minutes you can be in the country. It's also beautiful and clean with a lot of amazing parks.
