No responses

How is the responsiveness of the admissions office?

No responses

How did you prepare for the interview?

Read over AMCAS, this site, and talked to other students.

What impressed you positively?

The amount of clinical experience students get-it is considerably more than most med schools and students felt they were very prepared for residency.

What impressed you negatively?

The facilities are old but they are constructing a new building where students will have class.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

That they hadn't received my secondary application. (I sent it in in August but apparently it didn't get transmitted electronically.)

What are your general comments?

Wonderful-I initially thought it was an ok school but after talking to Dr. Case and the M4 guide I realized it is a great school whose students are very well prepared.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
