Report Response | I was asked this too

What impressed you positively?

The new hospital, new research facility being built, Dean Brown, the fact that they fed us good food for breakfast and lunch, my fellow interviewees, the curriculum (we got to do a sample PBL session), the MD/MPH program

Report Response | I was asked this too

What impressed you negatively?

The fact that the first part of the introduction to the school was all about how hard it was to get into the school and how we should be so proud of ourselves for getting this far because it is so hard to get an interview there blablabla...I realized this is why people think of northwestern as elitist and snotty. Also, the class seemed very young and a little immature, 1/3 of the class is from the 7 year undergrad program, lack of international study opportunities compared to other MPH programs
