What impressed you positively?

Everyone was really nice (esp. the admissions office), the interviewer was a doctor in the Emergency Medicine department and we had a wonderful talk. The facilities are very new and the dorms are supopsed to be very nice.

What impressed you negatively?

I didn't get to sit in on any classes and didn't get to see the dorms because the first years had anatomy class (that we weren't allowed to attend) and the second years were studying for a test. Also, I had my interview at the Montefiore Medical Center and it is a 20 -min shuttle ride and the shuttle only comes once an hour. I hardly had enough to time to eat and catch my shuttle on time, which also caused me to miss the rest of the tour as well. Also, the medical center is laid out weird so it was hard to find my interviewer's office.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

That I had to take a shuttle to Montefiore for my interview; that it was sooooooooooo cold in NYC!
