SDN, mock interviews

What impressed you positively?

nice gross anatomy lab, some of the faculty seemed intellegent and were doing some interesting work.

What impressed you negatively?

EVERYTHING! One interviewer was rude, poor location, ugly campus, unhappy students. THE TOUR GUIDE WOULDN'T EVEN ALLWO US TO SEE THE ON-CAMPUS HOUSING! Oh, and if you don't have a car, good luck getting off the island to get some food. There is no source of food on the island, no cafes, no grocery store...ughh, this is no place to spend 4 years!

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

That this was the most pathetic medical school in the country.

What are your general comments?

Not unlike some of the comments posted by others, not only is Mare Island a dump, but I get a real BAD feeling about the school and how they're opening a branch campus in Las Vegas! Wake up Touro! Your 1st campus needs work, don't let your greed affect the medical education of the poor saps that already attend this school. Seriously, its worng what they're doing, they should at least wait a year until the LV campus is opened. Nobody, ever, in the history of the world should ever attend this school...unfortunately I spent over $300 attending this waste of time interview. Don't make the same mistake.
