strength of programs, dual degree options, lots of new hospital wings and research buildings going up, all hospitals are within a few square miles, med school building will be brand new

the interviewer was very impersonal...we had no conversation besides the questions he asked, and the responses I gave...everything else was great (the construction will be done by summer 2008)

UC is a much better school than I thought...they have some nationally acclaimed programs, such as Peds (Cinci Children's is the nation's largest pediatric hospital system)

the interview was not very positive (thick accent, impersonal interviewer, he answered his phone int he middle of the interview), but everything else was great
