What impressed you positively?
How amazing the students and staff were. It was actually test day for all the students and they were still trying to calm our nerves while dealing with the stresses of their exams. Our tour was of the main teaching hospital, Tampa General. Was very impressed by the facilities and staff there as well.
What impressed you negatively?
Nothing really.. only thing I could mention is that the classrooms, library, and buildings themselves are pretty plain and old, but this might be because I'm spoiled now by attending a school with the most beautiful campus I have ever seen.
