How is the responsiveness of the admissions office?

No responses

How did you prepare for the interview?

reading this website, brushing up on current events!, reading over my apps

What impressed you positively?

school is very nice, near the beach; utmb does a lot for the prison population

What impressed you negatively?

the curriculum--classes only last half days, so I honestly believe you don't learn quite as much; one of the morning speakers mispronounced hippocrates' name after she said it was one of her favorite philosophers

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

the pediatrics program is definitely less than ideal--the student giving the tour told me there are very few pediatric patients, so the exposure is not as good as in other locations

What are your general comments?

interviewers very relaxed and laid back; the med student i stayed with was absolutely awesome (i recommend this experience!); lunch was great (catered mexican food)

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
