What impressed you positively?

I love UC DAVIS! I've been on a number of interviews and it is very clear that the faculty tailors the curriculum really well to preparing amazing MD's. They address everything to make your first two years the best possible from the limits they place on class time, pass-fail system ,etc. The faculty is really nice as well, I enjoyed my interview very much. I also enjoyed the people I interviewed with...I always take a look at who else is there b/c I think that's such an important, and often times, and overlooked aspect to see who UC Davis attracts and what they look for. My image of schools have dropped from the types of students present at these interviews.

What impressed you negatively?

I heard there isn't much to do in the town, but SF is only about 1 hour away. Honestly though, that is the least of my worries compared to all the great things it offers its students.
