Class size, curriculum (NDBE I after D1), graduation rates (1 person in last 10 years did not graduate).

Absolutely nothing. I interviewed at many schools, including some that are commonly regarded as cutting edge, and I thought that UNMC was easily the best program for me.

You don't have to cut your own cadavers in anatomy. This takes a bunch of time out of studying/lab work.
