SDN. Interview presentations.

The faculty is soooo in it for the students. The clinical yrs. Research encouraged. The Colleges. Low tuition. Curriculum. Syllabus, no need for textbooks. Dallas lifestyle. Student Center.

Classes will be in south campus, not north which is more beautiful. They don't have step 1 style exams. Only like 30% are regular class goers since the lectures are streamed online.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

Traffic is not bad. Do not wear a suit if you are going to clinicals on friday. You will look overdressed. Wear a tie, slacks, dress shirt & dress shoes.

The school was overall much better than expected, and it truely does not deserve the bad rep it gets as being cut-throat school.
