Report Response | I was asked this too

What impressed you positively?

Just about everything. Loved the Harrell Center. STAN was cool. Faculty was nice. Students seemed excited and happy. Students also do amazingly well on Step 1's. They also seem to be on top of their game with most things such as having converted their histology class to looking at images on the computer instead of standing all day at a microscope with slides.

Report Response | I was asked this too

What impressed you negatively?

Nothing really. Students said they have to work non-stop, but I think that is expected for just about any med school.

Report Response | I was asked this too

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

They use standardized patients. Their curriculum seems very traditional and there is only a little bit of patient interaction in the first two years. It seems to work for their students though.

What are your general comments?

Both interviewers I had were great. The first interviewer was incredibly easy going. We mainly just talked about different things. I think the only question he actually asked me was why I want to do medicine. The second interviewer was more traditional but the questions were typical and he was very nice.
