What do you like least?

Any other information you want to share?

This school could be much higher up the list if they got their scheduling under control. Neuroscience alone hasn't been updated in at least a decade if not longer and was the most unorganized course. Pharmacology tends to focus too much on minor details on drugs and forgoes a large number that are often seen on boards. You will have to stretch yourself to fit in the extra items this curriculum leaves out, and separately study to do well on their in-house exams.
