What impressed you positively?

Facilities were newer and nicer than I had previously expected. Location was good with plenty of medical facilities in the area.

What impressed you negatively?

The admissions briefing could have been titled ''why you should pick us over UW''. Tour guide kept getting lost. Little things, like misspellings on signs. I also think it must have been my interviewer's naptime.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

The emphasis they place on clinical medicine.

What are your general comments?

The interview day was nice. Didn't start until lunchtime so it was easy to get there on time and well rested. I don't think I'll come here though, seems like it was everybody's safety school.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?

They forgot to send me the interview confirmation email (with ALL the information).
