What impressed you positively?
Clinical Skills Center on the 6th floor is the school's pride and joy. It provides great clinical simulation experience. Also, the curriculum is a good mix of different learning methods.
What impressed you negatively?
Second interviewer was late because he came by, but my first interview was still in progress. I ended up staying there the longest. Also, he went a bit overboard on the healthcare issue. He then said, "Guess you didn't expect this kind of interview, huh?" Well, I didn't because I was told they'd be relaxed, but I admit it was pretty engaging.
What did you wish you had known ahead of time?
The school does offer some scholarships to about 33% of the class.
