What impressed you positively?

You can get contact with patients in the first week. In the first year curriculum you learn several subjects at once. In the second year, you do more system-based learning. More than half the class usually comes from off the waitlist. The people in Omaha are extremely nice.

What impressed you negatively?

It doesn't seem like there is a lot to do in Omaha.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

That the medical school is not actually connected to the hospital. I got dropped off at the hospital and ended up having to find a ride over to the medical school.

What are your general comments?

My experience was great. First we had an information session and then we met with some students and had a snack. My interviews went very well. I actually had something in common, apart from medical school, with both my interviewers so our conversations weren't focused around the normal interview-type questions I've had at other schools. But I think the fact that I had those things in common worked out really well for me because they got to know me without having to ask me any really stressful questions. After the interviews we had a tour and another information session about the admissions process at Creighton. I actually just found out today that I was accepted at Creighton.
