What impressed you positively?

Students kept saying over and over how happy they were and they all chose UM because everyone else there seemed so happy. They all really seemed to like it.

What impressed you negatively?

Classrooms a little dingy. They're constructing a new building for that but not for another 5 years.

Report Response | I was asked this too

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

You may think that if the drive would take you 33 minutes with no traffic you could just add an hour and a half to that and be fine but...you'd be wrong. Also, admissions will tell you spanish isn't necessary but med students said YOU'LL NEED IT!

What are your general comments?

We had two info sessions in the morning, one about the school itself and one about the importance of doing research and being custodians of the greatest single achievement of mankind (doctors). At ten was either an interview or a tour. I had the tour. The guide was good, though a little hard to hear. She took us to the various ERs and the trauma center. At 11, some of us interviewed and some of us had a weird hour of nothingness. 12 was lunch with med students. This was fun and informative. 1 was either a wrap up session or an interview if you had yet to do one. Those interviewing at 1 wrapped up at 2. At the wrap up, we learned when we would find out about our applications and scholarships, etc. We were also told to go post on SDN! Interviews were SO relaxed. Really nothing to worry about. It was just a "conversation." No questions about health care policy or anything like that.
