What impressed you positively?

The faculty seems concerned with students' success. Very high Step 1 scores this year. The Texas Medical Center. Lectures are recorded and put on web.

What impressed you negatively?

No relationship with Texas Children's is a little bit of a downer. The size of the class makes it feel like a bit of a 'doctor factory'. Traditional curriculum leads to 'hell weeks' of exams throughout the preclinical years. Not P/F.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

That it is so difficult to commute to this school. The housing situation could be difficult. Student housing seems good, if that works for your situation.
