What impressed you positively?

The campus was laid back and had an excellent reputation. The dean was extremely nice. They spoke of having a staff comprised of both MD and DO professors as well as PHDs. All the core rotations are in the Chicago area and then there are 5 or 6 elective rotations you can do anywhere. School had a campus feel and everyone was really young.

What impressed you negatively?

Its farther from Downtown that I would have liked. The geese made kind of mess and were roaming everywhere. Overall nothing major though.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

nothing

What are your general comments?

The interview was very relaxed. They made an effort to be put everyone at ease. There was a lot of down time, waiting for everyone to get through the interviews and we only got to meet 2 or 3 of the students. My interview was very low stress. The interveiwers looked like they werent prepared with questions at all and just wanted to hear me speak about myself. The questions were very opened ended and they let me go where I wanted with them. The day went quickly but was enjoyable.
