What impressed you positively?

Bellevue is a great hospital, the lecture hall is nice, and that part of Manhattan is amazing.

What impressed you negatively?

The anatomy lab, and many other facilities are run-down, cafeteria food is supposedly horrible, the dorms to me would be unlivable...

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

That you HAVE to live in crummy dorms unless you want to drive a long way or pay a lot

What are your general comments?

Day is only about 4 hours long. My interview was at 9-9:30, then the Dean came out and acted really weird for a few minutes (this was worth it...). Then at 10-1:30 lunch and tour...no tour of Bellevue which kind of sucked. It was ok...made me realize I really couldn't go here though.
