What are your general comments?
Loved UMD. You would have thought that Hopkins and UMD were switched due to all of the new facilities and equipment at UMD (most buildings are only 3 yrs old). Foxwell is the man. They give you a computer (well actually you pay for it with your tuition) that you take all the tests on (simulate USMLE) and notes along with taped lectures are uploaded to it. GO TERPS!
