What impressed you positively?
The size and prestige of the hospital.
What impressed you negatively?
The school's building itself seemed pretty unwelcoming. I didn't get a "camaraderie is important" vibe, either. The students were friendly enough, but our tour guide was unprofessional in how lackadaisical his attitude was. We didn't get to see the cadaver lab or any of the simulation rooms - if there were any.
