What impressed you positively?
Block schedule is great -- you never have to focus on studying for multiple exams at once. Students conveyed the impression that you can have a life outside of school. Gross anatomy is done after the first block. School helps to set up research opportunities during summer after first year. Newly renovated hopsital. Fairly unstructured 4th year.
What impressed you negatively?
Student interviewer did not let me complete my answers. (He seemed determined to get through his list of questions in the allotted time.) Letter-grading system.
What did you wish you had known ahead of time?
A grat school -- I had no idea how impressed I would be by the students, curriculum, and hospital!.
What are your general comments?
Showed up at admissions office and found out interview schedule. Attended part of a 1st year class while waiting for interview time. First interview (with faculty member). Attended financial aid presentation and Dean Foxwell's presentation. Lunch. Tour by students (well-done and only 4 interviewees per tour group). Second interview (with student).
