Report Response | I was asked this too

What impressed you positively?

grady hospital was very impressive, the students were extremely friendly and interesting people, i liked the other applicants, the admissions staff were very kind & fun, the atmosphere was collegial, atlanta seems great, there is good access to student life and sports facilities, there are other health-related schools there (public health, nursing, dental)

Report Response | I was asked this too

What impressed you negatively?

many of the labs & classrooms for the next few years will be borrowed from other programs and/or temporary because they are about to demolish & reconstruct a building, i wasn't sure how i felt about the extremely traditional curriculum (subjects taught separately, grades, little emphasis on pbl)

Report Response | I was asked this too

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

nothing

Report Response | I was asked this too

What are your general comments?

i liked emory a lot and had positive impressions of almost everyone i met there. the teaching hospital looks fabulous. it was a well-organized and fairly fun interview day, though long. the group interview was fine--not a cause for worry. it's actually fairly interesting to learn about your fellow applicants. if i get in, i will have to think hard about whether i want to go to a school with such a traditional curriculum.
