What impressed you positively?

Very laid back faculty. The students were very helpful and seemed to enjoy the school a lot.

What impressed you negatively?

The parking and humidity were awful. Also the maps were not very good so I ended up walking quite a ways in the morning to find the main entrance (the main entrance is on the east side of the medical school building next to the library).

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

Parking...parking...parking. It cost me $20 to park overnight thursday, and another $10 to park the next day. Neither of which was very convenient and still required a lot of walking. If possible look up the routes for the metro rail (sort of like a subway) which lets out right in front of the medical school, or just hail a cab.

What are your general comments?

The school was great. I especially like the relaxed atmosphere there. The dean of admissions reminds me of Don Rickles.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
