How is the responsiveness of the admissions office?

10 out of 10

How did you prepare for the interview?

Read SDN interview feedback, got some good sleep and arrived early!

What impressed you positively?

School Location, PBL--I personally think it is AWESOME! Yes, you do have to read a ton of pages everyday, but it does give you a lot more flexibility in your schedule. Also, the students rock the face off of years 3 and 4....which is where you get to "rub shoulders" and impress future residency directors.

What impressed you negatively?

The fact that there are only 4 cadavers in the anatomy room and all of the tests are done based off of pictures/slides.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

I didn't find any surprises.

What are your general comments?

GREAT SCHOOL!! Definitely NOT for everyone though! If you like to read, study as a team, and take initiative in your medical education, then PBL is for you! If you like lectures...don't come here! You won't get them! =)

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
