What impressed you positively?

Urban patient population, will get to see interesting cases. The students were extremely friendly.

The library was extremely small and that is after their reinovations. That from now until May they are not giving out many acceptances, just the contnuing list even though they said they took everyone from that list last year.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

That Philly cabs are always 10-15 minutes late.

What are your general comments?

I had a 10:00am interview. The financial aid presentation occured at 11:00, the welcome talk at 11:30, the tour at 12:00, and lunch at 1:00pm. The tour guides were great, they answered all questions honestly.
