What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

That you can get an mph at ut-houston concurrent with your 4-year baylor degree. pretty sweet. do epidemiology at md anderson sounds like a quality experience.

What are your general comments?

Exceptional facilities. I think the strong point for Baylor is their clinical offerings. The fact that several of Baylor's programs have direct affiliations with MD Anderson (e.g. neurosurgery chair is head for both BCM and MD Anderson) and that Texas Children's will probably be the best pediatric hospital in the country in the next few years, it really a phenomenal breadth of experience to be had.
