Report Response | I was asked this too

What impressed you positively?

The Texas Medical Center is amazing, my student interviewer was very friendly, my faculty interviewer talked about how her students come to her for all sorts of things--academic and otherwise, students have three afternoons free per week.

Report Response | I was asked this too

What impressed you negatively?

Even though the student we talked to played down the competitiveness of the school, there still seemed to be a lot of "gunners" and even "snipers"--a term I hadn't heard before which the tour guide explained was people who pretend not to care about their grades but secretly study all the time.

Report Response | I was asked this too

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

After 4 o'clock, all the activities--student life presentation, hospital tour, box dinner, and some other things--are optional.

Report Response | I was asked this too

What are your general comments?

The day began with a rather long and pointless introduction. This was followed by two interviews and some free time to tour the academic facilities and chat with students and other applicants. There were some presentations about special academic tracks and life in Houston and a tour of the gigantormous Texas Medical Center. Everyone seemed very nice, although some of the admissions reps (both student and faculty) seemed especially fake.
