What impressed you positively?

The new medical school is very impressive. It was designed with technology in mind. It would favor the student who likes to bring their laptop to class.

What impressed you negatively?

I was not too impressed with the city and its lack of a diverse population.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

Their are not too fond of students not completing the classes listed on their application or changing degree completions.

What are your general comments?

I think both interviews went well. The student interview seemed more like a conversation than an interview. A positive point for me was that they try to pair you up with people that have similar interests as you.
