What impressed you positively?

Everyone was so laid back and so nice. Everyone was friendly and having a good time. Everyone was just cool. Great board scores. My student host was chill and good to me. The student body is very close and have a lot of activities together.

What impressed you negatively?

Galveston is poor and small. I would not like living there, but I could do it if this was my only choice.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

What galveston was like (humid, hot, run-down)

What are your general comments?

Good school--much better than the city it's located in. They really take care of their students and everyone is friendly. The laid back atmosphere is perfect for certain people. I think this will be my back up school. In terms of "fit", I think I need a medical school that is a little more intense for me to have the best experience. Galveston is just so laid back and so chill that it doesn't fit my personality.
