What impressed you positively?

fascilities

What impressed you negatively?

INTERVIEWERS!!!!! They were AWFUL!!!! Everyone kept saying how laid back and easy-going they would be...they were NOT!!! I've had two other interviews and both were much more laid back than this one. One interviewer made no sort of response to any of my questions, one kept telling me "If you don't get into med school this year, keep trying" REPEATEDLY, and the other was making no sense what so ever and asking me all these BS questions about rural medicine that made absolutely no sense!

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

That the profs. were not easy going like everyone else said.

What are your general comments?

Not impressive. Te school iself seemed great and the students seemed to like it. Good fascilities. BUT the interviewers really turned me off. I think it's my last choice now.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
