Just looked at the school catalog.

What impressed you positively?

The enormous Texas Medical Center and the vast amount of learning opportunities available. The students are genuinely happy and nice.

Parking is very expensive but students can take the train to TMC and save on gas and parking. The building is run down.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

how HUGE the TMC is.

What are your general comments?

I interviewed with one PhD and one MD. The PhD was Dr. Pate from the dental branch for some reason and he basically asked me very standard questions. By the end of the interview I did not feel like he had gotten to know ME that much but I had answered his questions. The second one was GREAT. Dr. Potts, the assistant dean of surgery and he was very nice. We talked about baseball and fencing and my future plans in medicine. I actually felt like I connected with the second guy much better. Overall the interviews went really well.
