What impressed you positively?

The satisfaction and enthusiasm of the med students was quite refreshing.

What impressed you negatively?

Reed Hall rooms, the necessity for tight security around the hospital, and in general the city of Baltimore were not very encouraging.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

I wish I had believed people when they described Baltimore as "ghetto."

What are your general comments?

The student and faculty interviews were as expected. However, the group mingling with the med students on the admissions council was very very long and drawn out. I was out of questions to ask the students after 30 minutes, so for the other 2 hours, I basically had to ask irrelevant questions and make small talk.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
