What are your general comments?

Miami is a unique place. The students range from genious to average at best. Most importantly they all have the desire to study medicine. Miami is one of the few schools that truly seeks to diversify their class. The enviroment seems to be a nuturing one. The students seem to be happy with the choice they have made. The admissions office staff is incredible. While the wait is tough, they patients they show with the applicants is tremendous. Agnes Murphy does not get the credit she deserves. She makes the med school shine. I declined interviews from other schools simply b/c the staff was rude, and i felt that would reflect the schools enviroment. Hinkley is a man who runs nearly a flawless show. Everyone is treated with dignity and respect. Most importnantly he is willing to talk with you, not down to you. Im not sure how Miami "ranks" compared to other medical schools, but based on my experience with the faculty and staff, they must be delivering the best doctors. GO CANES
