What impressed you positively?

The students were VERY friendly and seemed happy and active in the school. There was a variety of activities they participated in, and community service was a common denominator.

Report Response | I was asked this too

What impressed you negatively?

The first interview was by a student, who went through a list of canned questions... the result was a REALLY LONG interview. Luckily the second was by a seasoned interviewer (general surgeon) and very brief; more like a conversation.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

The winter storms can be really bad, and taxis are impossible to get. Also, the hotel shuttle takes airport trips as priority over other trips, so my ride ended up getting dropped from their list. Have a back-up plan for getting to the airport.

What are your general comments?

The school is very open to students of various backgrounds, and underscores peoples need for a life outside of med school. The administration takes great pride in their support of students. The students confirmed this. Also, they recently changed their curriculum to integrate the first year, and had great success--the boards ave. went up the first year the new curriculum was implemented (they are above the national average).
