read over applications, read SDN, practiced answers to questions outloud

What impressed you positively?

The kindness of the students, faculty and everyone else I encountered. The focus of the school on the humanistic aspects of practicing medicine.

What impressed you negatively?

Anatomy is taught by prosection and the histology course is taught using computerized slides. I wonder if these "time saving" adjustments will take away from the overall educational experience.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

You need to take 8 semester hours of biology including one upper level (i.e. 300 or 400 level) course. This isn't made clear in the information they send you but they call out all people whom they feel haven't completed the pre-med requirements and talk to you.

What are your general comments?

The whole thing was very easy going. The people made quite an effort to help you feel comfortable. There are lectures in the morning on everything from curriculum to financial aid so if you're a little shaky on the details going into the day don't worry--they'll make everything clear before you have to officially be evaluated by anyone.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
