Report Response | I was asked this too

What impressed you positively?

The enthusiasm of the students; they seem really to enjoy being at Washington University. The hospitals are HUGE, and it's obvious that the medical school is very, very well-funded.

Report Response | I was asked this too

What impressed you negatively?

The medical school emphasized the research much more than they did the curriculum, it seemed. Tuition is very expensive, and the campus is surrounded in part by a large industrial section which looks pretty deserted and dangerous at dark.

Report Response | I was asked this too

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

If you're staying in Olin Hall, make sure to bring a CD player or something to pass the time, because otherwise it can get very quiet and lonely in the room all by yourself.

Report Response | I was asked this too

What are your general comments?

Washington is definitely a good school that encourages research and gets you ample funding for your research interests. The curriculum seems almost eclipsed in the process, however, and it's hard to tell how the pricey tuition translates to an outstanding and unique medical education here.
