What impressed you positively?

i go to this school for undergrad. the quality of the faculty stood out most during the tours and interviews. they really were high caliber (academically and personally) individuals; definately above my expectations. there is considerable flexibility in the college if you want to pursue other things, for example dual degrees, opportunities abroad, or other activities that would take a significant portion of your time as a medstudent. very innovative learning tools (STAN human simulator, harrell center) the school is so balanced in terms of research, education, and patient care.

What impressed you negatively?

walking around the the main classroom area is dismal, i wish there were more windows. neutral: gainesville is not the place to get great emergency/urban/crazytime experience (but there are rotations in jacksonville).

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

No responses

What are your general comments?

long day (9-5), completely filled with tours and interviews. comfortable and relaxed interviews.
