I thought that the school was a very nice school- newly built and everything. It is close to everything! bars, movies, the beach! The only thing was that I got stuck on a couple of questions asked by my faculty interviewer, but my student interview went great!

nothing really....except that I heard that there are some students who do not pass the boards.
