What impressed you positively?

The students all seemed very happy and glad to be there. Medical students at NYU are exposed to the most diverse patient population on the planet

What impressed you negatively?

The tourguide. Using the ''f'' word every other sentence and telling dirty (really dirty) jokes just isn't very professional. Also, the way he talked about the school made it sound like NYU med is just a party school.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

That I probably wouldn't want to live in New York.

What are your general comments?

My interview was okay. The interview at NYU is very low stress. I guess that they just want to meet you in person in order to find out if you're some kind of weirdo. My interview was brief. It basically consisted of introductions and the interviewer telling me why I should want to come to NYU. The tour of the school and meeting the students there was a valuable experience. I guess that I feel like I just wouldn't fit into the student culture there. The students I met all seemed like 22 year old singles who liked to party. If you don't feel out of place with that kind of people, then you'll probably like NYU.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
