What are your general comments?
I think LECOM is a very good school. I like that it has a ton of hospitals in many different states to pick from for your 3rd and 4th year rotations. Erie is definitely not like a Philadelphia, NYC, or other big cities, but I really don't mind that. Cleveland, Buffalo, and Pittsburgh are all about 1 1/2 hours away so if you felt the need to go escape and do something fun in a big city atmosphere, you can do that. I don't mind the dress code policy at all. If the dress code is the reason you wouldn't want to go to LECOM, then that's very shallow thinking. I also don't mind cold weather.
💬 Interview Process
What was the most interesting question?
Tell us something about yourself not in your application.
How did you prepare for the interview?
SDN, mock interviews, read over application.
What impressed you positively?
The helpfulness and openness of everyone I encountered, from students to staff to faculty.
What impressed you negatively?
Nothing really. They should change the no food/no drink policy though. Students get hungry and thirsty during long days at school!
What did you wish you had known ahead of time?
Everything was pretty much how I expected. Everyone said it was a low stress day, but I was still surprised at how low stress it really was.
