What impressed you positively?

People in West Texas are the nicest folks you will ever meet. Texas Tech is a really fun school. People are very nice there. I also like the dual degree programs they have, especially the MD/MBA.

What impressed you negatively?

The lower than average Step 1 scores.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

That they split the 3rd/4th years classes.

What are your general comments?

They told us to be there at 9am, but didn't start until way later. Then we went to this two hour presentation, which was a little boring. Then we had lunch, chicken fried steak; I guess it's a West Texas tradition. Then went to the interviews, student panel, and a student-led tour.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
