What impressed you positively?

What impressed you negatively?

Poor organization of the interview day, the med school students and the other pre-med applicants left a bad impression of the school

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

Two thirds of the class is relocated to either Amarillo or El Paso for the third and fourth years.

What are your general comments?

The facilities were nice. The interviewers and presenters were very kind. I would have liked some coffee in the morning. We were also instructed to be there at 9am, but no one from the admissions office showed up until 10am, which was a little awkward for everyone. I also had three separate hours to kill throughout the day.
