What impressed you positively?
UC is a great school, and the students seemed very happy there. There were very extensive presentations on the curriculum, selection process, and financial aid. I really appreciated how frank the dean was when he discussed how students are selected after the interview.
What impressed you negatively?
In the past years, the Step 2 pass rate at UC has fallen below the national average once or twice.
What are your general comments?
MMI was not stressful at all. They do a great job of thoroughly explaining how and why the MMI works at the very start of the interview day. I liked having the MMI first thing so it was out of the way and I could focus on learning about the school afterward.
