What impressed you positively?

everyone was so friendly and was so happy to be working/attending the school. the faculty was genuinely interested in helping the students and it seemed like there was lots of support for academics and future clinical practice, as well as lots of chances for fun.

What impressed you negatively?

traffic in the local area seems annoying. and during the 3rd year rotations you will ahve to go thru williamsburg hospitals which are at least 40 min away.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

participate in their activities with the standardized patients, and ask a lot of questions. they are really excited about their school and seem to respond if you are too.
