10 out of 10

How is the responsiveness of the admissions office?

10 out of 10

How did you prepare for the interview?

SDN, LECOM website, review my file, friends did a mock interview

What impressed you positively?

Sitting in the PBL session was nice because it allows you to see how it really works. The facility is new and pretty. Most of the staff seems really nice.

What impressed you negatively?

I was told that what I liked about my PBL session was wrong and isn't how it's supposed to work. That threw me off.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

You enter through the back of the building to get a little security thing.

What are your general comments?

I just have to say, take the whole &quot;OH NO PBL and OH NO only four cadavers&quot; comments with grains of salt. I went in there prepared for the worst, and LECOM actually impressed me. I keep hearing that not doing your own cadaver is actually nice and quite appropriate. So I'd say, don't prejudge, you might like it a lot. I also appreciated that almost all of my time there, people were honest about how PBL doesn't work for everyone, and didn't force it on me. For me there was really only one person that was a little pushy about it.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
