What impressed you positively?
The staff was very nice and helpful.
What impressed you negatively?
The PBL program. Although the interview was very low stress, I was in dismay over the curriculum. I don't see how it's possible to learn without lectures and a textbook list. Everything learned is purely from the cases! I don't see the point of paying 68K in tuition per year to teach myself. It's ridiculous.
What did you wish you had known ahead of time?
I have heard stories about USC. Everything people have said about the curriculum is completely true. However, I didn't think the area was that bad.
