What impressed you positively?

the people - so level-headed, enthusiastic and engaging. the facilities - second-to-none!

What impressed you negatively?

the humidity, of course

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

that they interview a very large number (40+) per interview day...

What are your general comments?

I was interviewed by two physicians, both were very friendly and the students, faculty and staff were very welcoming. The student host program was stellar, too. Definately go to Two Rows afterwards if at all possible - this will help you get to know the students more personally and get a feel for how Baylor would fit your wants/needs.
