looked over the school's website and read SDN feedback
What impressed you positively?
They have an impressive passing rate for the boards; I like that 50% of the students are from out of state (not what I expected); the facilities for practicing clinical care are impressive; the Children's Hospital is 3rd in the country; strong faculty/peer advising program...
What impressed you negatively?
There doesn't seem to be tons of clinical experience in the first few years; the class size is 204, which seems quite large.
What did you wish you had known ahead of time?
Because I didn't need to stay with a student, I missed out on the student social the evening before the interview, and I would've liked to attend; there aren't a lot of other opportunities to ask students questions.
What are your general comments?
Both the 4th year and the MD PHD wanted to keep things very laid back and relaxed, so they were both very conversational and relaxed.
