What impressed you positively?

The med students are all very friendly and seem genuinely happy with the school. The system-based curriculum seems to be a good way of learning the material.

Report Response | I was asked this too

What impressed you negatively?

The hospitals weren't anything special (especially after coming from a UT-Houston interview).

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

No responses

What are your general comments?

Morning presentation and Q&A with 4th years, then a tour (kinda disorganized), lunch with the students, 2 interviews, and then cookies with a chance to talk with other students (mostly 2nd years). Overall it was a good experience. My first interview was the sweetest lady ever. She was obviously very intelligent but kept the interview very conversational. My second interview was also friendly, although he conducted the interview in a more traditional Q&A way, which is a little more stressful. They have a really large clinical skills training center. The students are all very welcoming and seem to enjoy helping each other.
