Sentara Hospital is very nice and the standardized patient program is impressive

norfolk.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

I thought I would like Norfolk better than I did.

What are your general comments?

I was worried about the interview after reading SDN, and I think people exaggerated how stressful it was. If you know about healthcare and are a reaosnable ethical person, you will be fine. All of the students were realy friendly and the interviewees generally got along as well. EVMS itself is nice, its just its location that lessens my enthusiasm about the school.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
