How did you prepare for the interview?

SDN, this was my third school in TX, so I had a pretty good feel of how it was going to be--no surprises.

What impressed you positively?

They seemed to have the best facilities of anywhere I've interviewed. I would love to go to school here because of all the opportunities you have right there at the Texas Medical Center.

What impressed you negatively?

Nothing really. Everyone seemed to ignore the fact that Baylor was across the street. Guess they don't like addressing that obvious reality.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

There curriculum is very old school, but their schedule eases up some after the first semester.

What are your general comments?

This was a fabulous experience! Everyone should take the opportunity to visit the Texas Medical Center, it truly is amazing. Everyone was professional and friendly. The facilities and resources are first class and the opportunities are endless; this is a good school that will someday be a top-tier school. Tours were great.
