Tell me what it was like to grow up in Lincoln. The interviewer that asked me grew up there. I, however, did NOT. I moved there to be with my wife, but grew up in Denver. We chatted about Lincoln for a while, though.

Dr. Haight, as has been said time and again, is wonderful. He really makes you feel good about yourself, and is open about where the school is in terms of # of seats available, etc.

Report Response | I was asked this too

What are your general comments?

The anatomy lab is quite impressive and world-class. They were pinning the cadavers for first-year exams, so our tour guide wasn't allowed in, which was actually kind of nice because the professors preparing the exams talked to us for a while. The library is big, really nice, and set up kind of like a coffee shop. Lecture halls stadium seating, overall the campus was fantastic! Wish that there was more on the island than just a golf course, though. No restaurants, but there is a small cafe on campus. I was apprehensive going in, but coming out I have to say that I would seriously have to consider going to this school if accepted.
