What impressed you positively?

Everything!! Mr. Maldonado is awesome--he runs the show and does a great job of it. He is extremely knowledgeable, personable, and genuinely excited about what A&M has to offer.

What impressed you negatively?

Drive to Temple wasn't too bad, but I was exhausted at the day's end after driving home.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

Pay for parking! They will issue parking citations so be prepared! Make sure you follow someone to Temple so you know where to park at Scott & White (I managed to luck on to it).

What are your general comments?

Very full day, but they feed you well and there aren't any dull moments. I loved the tours of the facilities and the medical student panel. Med students were really helpful and friendly. I was very, very impressed by what A&M has to offer. Even though Temple's a small town, the hospital facilities are state-of-the-art, and both the VA Hospital and S&W are paperless!
