What impressed you positively?
#1-THE PEOPLE! :) Seriously, everyone was SO kind...the place felt very welcoming and 'homey'
#2-68% of graduates go into specialty areas. Although I asprire to be a pediatrician, I don't want to attend a school that will shove primary care down my throat. KCUMB gives you the opportunity to explore other options in the healthcare field for DO's :)
What impressed you negatively?
Not a P/F grading system, but I knew this going into the interview.
What are your general comments?
Met in conference room with applicants (breakfast provided). Chat about KCUMB and explanation about osteopathic medicine. Met with KCUMB students. Q & A session and a tour of the school. Lunch with students(tacos...they were delicious, but bad bad bad before an interview!!!). Then we were fitted for a white coat and interviewed. You were free to go afterwards. I was done by 2pm, but had to wait another hour for the others to finish so I could take the shuttle back to the hotel with them.
