Report Response | I was asked this too

What impressed you positively?

the technology in this school is nothing shy of crazy. The staff are pretty friendly.

Report Response | I was asked this too

What impressed you negatively?

These 2 reasons are why I am indifferent about the school. It seems to be a risk. This is the first year of the school. There are no stats about VCOM because stats dont yet exist. While the technology seems great and the people are nice there is no promise the school will be a good one. I dont want to take that risk on my medical education. Second, everywhere you look the school says there is a focus on rural medicine. Thats fine and dandy, but that focus seems to be very very large. While I have not said I will not be a rural doctor, I have not ruled out practicing in non-rural areas. The clinical rotations seems to put a person at a disadvantage if they apply to non-rural residencies.

Report Response | I was asked this too

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

The extent of the school's focus on rural medicine.

Report Response | I was asked this too

What are your general comments?

The interview was pretty relaxed, one of the interviewers failed to arrive on time, but that was quickly resolved. Everyone was nice, and the technology really is amazing.
