How is the responsiveness of the admissions office?

How did you prepare for the interview?

Reviewed the facts of the HC Crisis and made sure I could articulate my opinions clearly.

What impressed you positively?

Not Much

What impressed you negatively?

-The facilities weren't nice at all (bummer) -The students who gave the tour (seemed a little too immature to be grad students) -The staff (unfriendly) -The fact that the med school meshes with the undergrad facilities/students. It doesn't create an environment that makes you feel like you're in grad school. -The delivery of curriculum has been changing left and right due to student complaints. Not a strong track record in that area.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

I really had my hopes up for this one, and was consequently let down by the draw-backs.

What are your general comments?

Be honest with yourself in determining which school is the best fit for you. You will hear this from Ms. Sullivan, and she has excellent advice. *No coffee there. No continental breakfast or anything either.* Grab your cup o' joe on the way there, or else you're out of luck.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
