We did not have time to ask questions after the interview. You need to ask your questions before the interview. Last questions was: We are running out of time, so Is there anything else you want us to know?

What are your general comments?

After a week I got the call from Dr. Stowers that I got accepted, and this is where I am going. I am very excited. if you get an interview, go because there are a lot of info you do not find it on their website or SDN (international rotation sites, future hospital building, own laptop, how faculty works together with students, many faculty include previous deans in other schools (eX:rocky vista), school has a lot of money,due to lot of money great opportunities for students,open to your ideas if you want to do something they help you do it, Kaplan course before the Boards,mission trips, REM, and many more). It might be rural, but cheap to live here,great view, and no traffic. Great experience. I believe this school has a great future, and it easily could be among the most popular schools in a couple of years.
