Report Response | I was asked this too

What impressed you positively?

The location of the school, the transit system, the students seemed enthusiastic and easygoing, the hospitals are nearby, they are committed to improving oregon health care, there is only 2 hours of lecture a day and class is usually done at noon. THe block system seems like it would work well and reduce competition between classes.

What impressed you negatively?

The gym sucked. There was a lot of dead time in between interviews and the lunches. I've seen better organized and more informative interview days. I feel like schools should be excited to tell us about their school... they just left it up to us to ask questions.

Report Response | I was asked this too

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

There is a lot of down time. Bring a book or something to do in between scheuled meetings. The program is really progressive and modern despite their outdated website.

Report Response | I was asked this too

What are your general comments?

I was pretty impressed the by the school and students although I think they could have presented their school better. Make sure to ask any questions you have when the ass. dean comes to talk and talk to the students. Be aggressive in seeking information because it's a great program with a lot of opportunities. The campus is beautiful and people seem well-rounded and excited to be there. Portland is such a nice city with access to everything; the beach, mountains, wineries, and city entertainment.
