What impressed you positively?

Some of the students; my Interviewer (Dr. Fernado) seems like a genuinely great person. I would encourage everybody to talk to him.

What impressed you negatively?

Location. I felt there was a lot of hype of Temple's main campus or the medical school, but it seemed to me that the podiatric medicine students generally stayed in the podiatric med building, and didn't actually venture to the main campus. I felt a little deceived by the hyping up of Temple's general campus.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

Relax, it's honestly a very simple process
