No responses

How is the responsiveness of the admissions office?

No responses

How did you prepare for the interview?

I didn't.

What impressed you positively?

The faculty and staff went out of their way to answer questions, and if they didn't know the answer they called someone or looked it up for you.

What impressed you negatively?

Some of the medical students were really great, answering questions and helping out. Some medical students seemed snotty and cared only about the free lunch they were getting. They even sat at their own table and had their own conversation.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

I wish that I had prepared answers for some of the typical questions.

What are your general comments?

Overall I really liked the medical school. I work in a research lab in the school of medicine now, and I liked that they let you continue your research during your first and second years. They seemed really flexible, and all the faculty and staff wanted the medical students to succeed and have a positive and healthy experience.
