What are your general comments?
My experience at the school was almost exactly like it has been described by the other feedbacks. Some of the ideas the school has like immediate patient exposure, are good ideas however the school is extremely focused on community health and primary care. The curriculum will not train their students adequetly, I feel, in the basic sciences so I will be turning down my acceptance to Mesa and attending AZCOM instead as I love Arizona. Before I drop 200K on an educational program I need to know that the school will be doing everything possible to allow me the best all around education and success.
