🎓 The Basics

Overall, how satisfied are you with this program?

5 out of 10

What was the zip code of your residence in high school?

26037

What do you like most?

IM faculty in the Morgantown campus are top notch. Most programs other than general surgery are diamonds in the rough. Avoid general surgery here at all costs.

What do you like least?

Too much time wasted with additional "activities" that administration feels is important to our education when it has no bearing whatsoever on it. CPX (clinical performance examination) is a PRIME example. General surgery has a highly malignant attitude. They make residents and students feel terrible about existing, let alone being in medicine.

Any other information you want to share?

Average school at best. Since it was the best option in the state, I am happy with my decision. The overall education was average, and the experience itself was slightly below average.
