No responses

How is the responsiveness of the admissions office?

No responses

How did you prepare for the interview?

Reading the Brody website and the AAMC's Admission Requirements handbook. Reviewing my application.

What impressed you positively?

The proximity of Pitt County Hospital to the medical school (literally next door), the one-on-one exit interview with Dr. Peden, the food in the cafeteria (no joke-you can eat a full meal for next to nothing and there is a wide variety of foods and salad bar. Students receive a discount.) There is abundant affordable housing very close to the medical school.

What impressed you negatively?

I have no negative feedback to report, I was very impressed with Brody.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

Many students at Brody have worked dilligently to get into medical school and for several it has been a multi-year process to achieve this goal. This is both frightening and encouraging at the same time. This makes for Brody students to be some of the most dedicated.

What are your general comments?

A great school, at a great price. During the tour we actually had three tour guides when our tour guides invited a friend to lunch. We spent the meal discussing how their first year had gone and what types of things they did to imporve their application and be accepted at Brody. They were highly encouraging and seemed to feel great about their decision to come to ECU. If you want to do family practice, this is the school for you- it scored quite highly in the most recent US News and World Report rankings.
