What impressed you positively?

Awesome atmosphere. The faculty and staff as well as the students are amazingly open and welcomming. I also loved the cheap living conditions in New Orleans and how the students are very very involved in the healthcare delivery of the city because so many docs left the city. So clinical experience would be amazing

What impressed you negatively?

N/A

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

That the facilities weren't nearly as bad as people on SDN say they are. They seem like an older med school, what else do people need in an anatomy lab or building...it looked like it would work just fine. Also the new building is pretty amazing, with an awesome student lounge, and awesome study/small group rooms on the 22nd floor overlooking the whole city!

What are your general comments?

Very very laid back. they really just want to get to know you as a person and are extremely interested in knowing that their medical students are real people and not some lame book nerds that study all the time and don't know how to relate to people. The whole experience was extremely relaxing and I really felt like Tulane is a great fit for anyone looking to become a doc who relates well to all types of people
