What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

nothing, it was a very relaxed day

What are your general comments?

The school is working hard to become the premere osteopathic medical school, they have a new curriculum, are working to expand the research they as an institution are doing and have new dorms. They were careful to dismiss rumors about low board passing rates. The location is urban and not terribly sheltered from the surrounding neighborhoods, but the facilities are gorgeous. Everyone was enthusiastic and engaging.
