This site.
What impressed you positively?
They set up one of my interviews with the head of the cardiology department. I thought it was a nice touch.
What impressed you negatively?
The medical school is in the hospital sort of. The weather. We weren't able to see the clinical skills lab because of exams.
What did you wish you had known ahead of time?
The curriculum is over 4 years (basic science and clinicals) so you haven't had all the basic science you need before taking step 1. Not a big deal we were told though.
