What impressed you positively?

You meet a bunch of great students, extensive hosptial tour (can be tiring), Erica is hilarious, New medical building is going to be amazing. Beautiful campus. New curriculum should be interesting. Emory did the best job of exposing me to all aspects of the school: faculty, studens, facilities, hospitals of any school I interviewed at.

What impressed you negatively?

The lack of specific information about the new curriculum.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

How much a cab was going to cost from Altanta airport to the campus ($60, wouldn't recommend it).

What are your general comments?

Emory is a great school already and is on the rise I think. They have the most extensive interview day and they expose you to every part of the school. Most others I interviewed at just showed you the school's facilities but didn't really show you anything in their hospitals. Emory shows you not just stuff that is important for first and second year but also gives in-depth tours of 3rd and 4th year rotation hospitals.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
