No responses

How did you prepare for the interview?

All the usual stuff. Lots of preparation.

What impressed you positively?

Great hospitals, some of the best I've seen.

The students were strange. One told me that he had no idea what the "Nine Abilities" were all about and how they fit into the curriculum (he was a third year!). Another student told me the administration often mistreats students and many are unhappy.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

Brown students score significantly below the national average on the medical board tests.

What are your general comments?

I was surprised to hear so much negative stuff from students and the medical school facilities amounted one lecture hall, a shabby lounge and an anatomy lab that we weren't permitted to see.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
