What impressed you positively?

Students seemed happy, and I liked that the school emphasizes student wellness.

What impressed you negatively?

I did not like St. Louis at all and would not want to live there. There are huge piles of rubble and an old abandoned building right across the street from the med school. Unattractive.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

No responses

What are your general comments?

Short interview day. No admissions presentation...overall I felt like the day was not very structured. I also do not like the 1 interview method, I think you need at least 2 interviewers to give a reliable assessment of a candidate.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
