How did you prepare for the interview?

No preparation. Just cold turkey

What impressed you positively?

I LOVE the fact that they have high emphasis on research and they are recognized for their stem cell research program.

What impressed you negatively?

I wasn't a big fan of their gross anatomy lab.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

How hard it is to actually find the school. Their directions stink!

What are your general comments?

It was a bit difficult finding the school and even finding the admissions office. The first thing I did when I got there was the interview which was in the morning. The students were really cool and the facilities are IMPRESSIVE. It is also in a college town so lots of stuff to do. Oh and the most awesome thing is the fact that you can do your clinical rotation at the Jersey Shore at the Piscataway Campus.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
