What impressed you positively?

The lunch was great and laid back with the Second Year students. The tour of the campus was great, the buildings and facilities are really nice. The tour was split with half given by a faculty member and the other by studnets. The students also take you into the gross anatomy lab and you get to meet with the teacher, all was so great!

What impressed you negatively?

I didn't really understand the OMT (Oseopathic Manipulative Therapy). The person that explained it I dont' think understood it that well either (she was on staff).

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

That 80% of the doctors that come out of this school go into family practice. Many in the group asked at different times why this was and we never got a straight answer.

What are your general comments?

The ladies at the admissions office were very nice and caring. You could tell they were really happy doing thier job and wanted you to like it there too. My first interview went well, she was really nice and talkative. It was just like a normal converstation. My second on was a little more difficult becasue she asked alittle harder questions. All in all the experience was really a good one. Nothing to really worry about!
