What impressed you positively?

Students were really down to earth and happy. Curriculum is the main draw for me! Cleveland Clinic is pretty awesome. Nice surrounding neighborhood. Great research resources.

What impressed you negatively?

Some of the learning environments are older and my student interviewer was extremely introverted and into research, which was pretty opposite of me... not necessarily Case's fault at all. Also, Cleveland was a bit of a downer, but the school is not really in the thick of Cleveland, so that rocks!

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

It suddenly got super cold and rainy, lol
